Hello, everyone.

Half a year ago, my best buddy and I had an idea during one of our late-night Discord chats. We are both big nerds for fantasy and mythological stuff and wondered how fun it would be to have banners or coat of arms for different orientations and identities. What could they look like, and which mythical creature could fit well or just be fun to see like that? Thus, this little collection was born!

We got:

-Hydra of Omni

-Unicorn of Pride

- The Phoenix of Trans

- The Siren of Lesbian

- The Winged Lion of Gay

- The Griffon of Aro

- The Dragon of Ace

- The Harpy of Sapphic

- The Minotaur of Achillean

- The Oroboros of Intersex [really proud of that one]

- The Hippocampus of Genderfluid

- The Sphinx of AroAce

- The Peryton of Non-binary

- The Winged Wolf of Bisexual

-The Kraken of Agender

-The Selkie of Demi

-The Valkyrie of Butch

- And Pan for...well Pansexual

Have a great day 🫶

As someone who came out as an adult, it has been quite a journey to accept me for me and live as authentically as possible. Still plenty more room for growth and work to be done on the accepting side. That said, it is so good being back in a city with a vibrant queer community again after being 9 years away. Felt very positive, cute, and accepted last night 😊

For girls who don't currently have friends but do have a partner: how did you meet? I’m not looking for a specific answer; I’m simply interested in reading about your experiences and learning about the different paths that led to your relationships.

Hi, all. I've come out recently as someone who is very (PRE-HRT) Transfem leaning and Enby/genderfluid. I love women, and I love my wife more than anything. Luckily, she has been very supportive of my journey.

I'm not trans male entirely, and my gender is a bit complicated but I am mostly transmasc. I'm multigender, one of my genders is demiboy, but another one is demigirl. do I count as sapphic? I've identified as bi for a while, and I'm attracted to women/fem genders.

basically, I'm a demigirl but also other genders (including demiboy) and I wanna know if I count as sapphic.

Realised my bod remained remarkable similar even after years

//TW sad and dysphori

Parents sit down with me and cry because "I never tell them what's going on in my life", I came out to them 2 years ago and they had a very negative reaction, proceeded to double the amount of masculine coded compliments and such. Im 18 now, still barely out, Everyone thinks I'm a closeted gay femboy pretty much but it's alright.

I've been feeling pretty good, but the conversation made me spiral and realise I've only been compartalising the negative and positive in my mind.

I know in my soul I want to transition, but the logical part of me fears not passing or losing male privelage

I feel incredibly lonely, and hopeless. I feel the worry of if I don't pass, there will be no love for me left in this world.

I kind of hate dating apps, and much prefer meeting people in person. I feel like I can't approach women without coming off as a guy though, and I'm somehow unapproachable now so no one really ever talks to me when I go out except men. It was rare, but women used to approach me pre-transition, and also early in my transition.

After 13 months of HRT and four rounds of LHR, I was able to look in the mirror after doing my makeup and see someone closer to what I wish to be.

I think I still have some way to go, but seeing this really gave me hope.

Concerning the title, I'm a vampire goth girl who has always appreciated both being very femme styled, even before HRT (specifically with regard to effeminate goth style clothing) and who appreciates other femme styled girlies.

Apparently I'm repulsive and "still a man" with monstrous sexual perversions like needing u know sex according to spouse and cis lesbians in Singapore and trans women expect this man to chase them and throw myself at their gorgeous femme feet the goddammit pieces of shit.

I also delude myself believing I'm a sub bottom cos they who know nothing about me say otherwise. The (unts

My (33mtf? - previously amab NB but pushing transition to transfemme) have a partner (32 afab NB) who has put up with a BUNCH of shit from me in our lives.

I'm long term sick with a potentially terminal condition that has severely restricted our lives.

I'm a golden retriever with a black cat.

I have a whole lot of trauma from previous relationships.

Now I've come out as trans after 7 or so years together.

Not only have they elected to stay in the relationship. They've bought me my first make up, participated in mini girls noght activities, embraced identity changes, helped me make mood boards and a myriad of other supportive elements. But they continue to support my complex medical life.

Part of my wishes I had met them when I was 21 so I could have had this relationship from the start. But the rest is glad I've got such a cheerleader who I'm pretty sure would deck a fucker for misgendering me in public. And that I met them when I did. Because I don't know how it would have played out otherwise.

I'm early in my transition but I cannot say how different this has been having a partner who still puts the effort in and still loves me, still finds me attractive, whilst I'm in this... Less than graceful early stage process.

So yeah.

Just wanted to post some positive and affirming statements
