I never really understood men and women. back then they were just normal for me. but ever since the first year of high school, my heart starts to beat not only to girls but boys as well.

It only started with being friends then me getting butterflies in my stomach, then keeping it a secret to everyone until now.

a lot of people think that coming out isn't that bad. oh, I think you're very wrong about that. not only am I fearing for the reactions and answers of my own family but also I have to face the toxic and homophobic society.

when will society learn that the people of the LGBTQ community are still human beings? stop treating us as if were monsters.

do you think it's that easy to switch your gender preferences like an on and off switch? it's difficult okay? and boys, stop treating us like were some disgusting beings that you want to toy on us. we have feelings you know?

every day I feel like I'm breathing in toxic oxygen because of how difficult it is being closeted or being discreet. I still can't find my confidence, it' still deep inside my heart, I'm not ready yet.

if people are wondering which part of the LGBTQ community I'm from, I am homosexual, so yes I am gay. it's funny cause I feel like I'm a hunted species and I have to hide and blend in with the other people just to survive. many people that were coming out to their parents were either accepted or not.

I have yet to tell my parents about my sexuality, it's not a common topic and it's definitely not easy to tell. it's not a gamble your families's reaction and answer depend on your life. will you be accepted or not. there are so many homeless LGBTQ people because they got kicked out for coming out to their parents. it's just too cruel.

not all LGBTQ people are hostile or sexually interested. some are GENUINELY interested in someone and are very friendly. and they bring so much joy to the world!

just because we have different genders doesn't mean we're any different from the rest. equality and fairness are needed. no violence or even discrimination.

the world is just so dangerous. I hope I'll be able to find my confidence and tell my parents. whether they'll accept me or not, it won't matter anymore because it happened.

maybe I'll even find love soon. wouldn't that be great? someone loving you for who you are is the best type of love.


























Hey guys just a quick note. I know that some of you won't really like the idea of having an LGBTQ character in a story, but I just want to raise awareness that we're all the same!

I know discrimination will never fade away from LGBTQ people but I want to give these people a message!

I support the LGBTQ community because I personally love them and were all humans! if there are people struggling with coming out to their loved ones, chin up! there are other people that will soon accept you and you will find happiness soon! so stay positive because I am with you!

lots of love from Jasuchie <33
