Hey! Uh, so I never posted a message before, so this is kinda new for me, but I've had a question for awhile and my curiosity is bothering me right now
This question is specifically for people who've had to come out as something ( Especially in the LGBTQ+ community)
So, I'm a straight cis female who has a religion but isn't that practicing (sadly). Now, in my religion (not gonna say which because I don't want anyone to use stereotypes against me) it is specifically stated that being gay is a sin. Despite that I never really had a problem with people who are, it's just the way I am. My school is very adamantly supportive of the community and the stuff I expose myself too as well. But I don't know much about myself
Now, I literally do not care what happens in people's lives. I would always try my best to remember pronouns and I would never purposely try and address someone by their dead name ( I think that's what it's called). I find that disrespectful and just plain disgusting. But on the other hand, I don't see myself wanting to participate in a Pride Parade. I went to one once by accident, it seemed cool and stuff, but I don't think I would try and get a flag either. If my friend asked me to, to support them, I absolutely would. But I wouldn't go myself. Does that make me homophobic? Because I'm not actively supportive? Also, at one point, someone called me homophobic because I said that in my religion it was a sin. I didn't tell them it wasn't okay, I was just telling them the truth about MY religion. I also wasn't using that as a mean to defend homophobia, I was just stating a fact. So really my question is:
•Am I homophobic? And what should I do to stop?
I really don't like offending people, so this would be really helpful, if you do decide to respond.
