omg…. a platonic kissy face of friendship. think of it as eris patting you on the head. XD

i still don't know how to react to that and the visual of that isn't making it any better

but um thanks…?
Thank you.

Is that the correct reaction?

Hello, awkward entry here… I'm technically not LGBT but I'm ignorant and want to learn more about this stuff, and what better place is there to learn from than actual LGBT people? So yeah. I'm going to float around this chat, although I doubt I'll actually talk much…

Basically, Ella NutElla hath entered for stalking purposes. Hello there.

Warning, I might come off as accidentally offensive at least once due to how little I know about this, and if that happens I sincerely apologize. (You can see why I'm so desperate to learn…)

hi
Well, I can't speak for the whole chat, only for myself
And it's great that you want to learn
Which is really nice to hear from someone
But, uh, I personally would appreciate it if you didn't bring any Good Christian Server stuff into this
Any specific questions?

I stopped those jokes recently, they were getting very very old

got it
thumbs up

First question… What does the "I" stand for in LGBTQIA

Hey Ella. If you want, if you have any super specific questions(or might not want to ask a crowd), PM me, okay?

Got it!

First question… What does the "I" stand for in LGBTQIA

intersex

Which is…? (I've never heard that term before)

Someone who can identify as male, female, etc. Or it can mean you have both reproductive parts/hormones/chromosomes I think(sorry if I got it wrong)

Someone who can identify as male, female, etc.

That's genderfluid, from what I recall. Then there are also Demiboys and Demigirls.
Pretty sure that intersex is referencing which reproductive organs a person is born with.

Hope that helps clear anything up, Nutella. Warning: it has scientific words of the various no-no squares so if you're uncomfortable with that language then… be warned.

True, true

The internet is great.

Glad you guys could help Ella.

Any more questions?

I mean, I'm sure there's more I need to know but I wouldn't know what it is…

right, makes sense
well, when you think of LGBT+, is there a topic that just confuses you?
