Controversy surrounding 'bi lesbians'?

Sorry if the subject name feels a little clickbait-y, but this is coming from a place of confusion above all else I'm hoping this doesn't across as bringing needless drama to a fairly calm message board So, as of a few months ago/a year-ish I started seeing the term 'bi lesbian' popping up around on...

Asking for intimacy with a friend

I'm mostly asking for the future, since pandemic restrictions mean I can't see my friend in person, let alone in one of out houses, for a while. But I'm autistic and I usually don't like being touched (even by family) or having to ask for things/make a fuss however, I've been reading more romantic f...

Re: Accidentally cutting the inside of my genitals

Ok! That's pretty manageable I think I've had minor injuries before, but never one self-inflicted or that caused visible blood loss, so I just wanted to make sure I wouldn't accidentally make it worse. I also remembered since posting that whilst damaged skin can let microorganisms through, substance...

Accidentally cutting the inside of my genitals

This isn't fully about sexual health, but it is regarding the health of one of my sexual organs, so I hope this is the right board. It's a tad embarrassing to admit, but I was cleaning myself a few hours ago (after using the toilet) and I had a shiver (idk how to best describe it but they're normal ...

Re: I'm anxious for the future

I think I'd like ways to address the hopelessness, I've calmed down since I wrote the original post. But this despair is recurring and while it started before quarantine, its only gotten increasingly distressing, so I wanna try to deal with it w/o needing to vent as much, especially because I don't ...

I'm anxious for the future

The UK recently changed some laws so its going to be much harder for under 16's to get on puberty blockers and whilst this doesn't directly effect me, its made the future looks so much muddier to me, I'm scared everything will only start tipping backwards on this sort of thing. I normally don't like...

Question about anal sex

My other posts here have mostly been in regards to myself, but this is more a hypothetical question I saw on a reddit page a while back some people talking about anal sex, specifically prepping beforehand. They brought up the concept of 'anal douching' I know vaginal douching is bad because the vagi...

Re: A label I could use

I like queer, as a general term. But it sort of feels like a continent, as in saying 'I am queer' is like saying 'I have a European accent'. Its good for sort of summing everything up, it reminds me of some semi-joke labels of "strain't" or "cisn't" (for when you know you aren't ...

A label I could use

I want to start this by saying I understand that labels aren't strictly necessary , but I like having them, I like being able to categorise myself properly. I'm AFAB trans masc/gender fluid (pre-transition but also unlikely to ever really do anything drastic like hormones or surgery, at least if my ...

Queer Platonic relationships

I've heard about a kind of relationship called a 'queer platonic relationship' all I know is that it is apparently 'more than friends' but not fully romantic? What would this look like? Can you get queer platonic crushes? How are they different to 'romantic crushes'? I've heard some aromantic people...

Re: I need binding and packing advice

I think this is just an unfortunate thing that'd happen anywhere. Besides, aside from this issue, its an otherwise great server, not completely empty or always full, a lack of transmedicalism/truscums etc. Its just, my parents aren't the best with trans stuff (especially the concept of non binary) s...

Re: I need binding and packing advice

I don't think I could get away with a packer for cosplay, binding for cosplay is a bit of a stretch to begin with (wearing this sports bra/vest style thing to be more professional!) but a packer kinda looks like a penis, so I feel like that's not something I want lying around (I feel it'd be very ea...

Re: I need binding and packing advice

That's a good idea, but I'm afraid not, Halloween isn't really a big 'thing' in my area if you're above trick or treating age. Even without a pandemic. Besides, I wouldn't have much time to order anything (I usually have to go through a parent's account, but I am legally old enough to order things f...

Re: The term 'queer'

This is an old post, but as someone who uses tumblr (yes, even after it 'died') I can at least anecdotally attest, to a lot of the 'queer is still a slur' discourse coming from accounts who just so happen to also spout exclusionary stuff about aromantic/asexual communities, bi/pan people and just ge...

Re: I need binding and packing advice

(Also, if it wasn't obvious, I'd keep the binder for non cosplay wear and say it was a comfort/fashion thing that I might as well use since I go to at most, one con a year)
I also wear a lot of baggy clothes and hoodies/sweatshirts in general, for what its worth.

Re: I need binding and packing advice

Oh, I appreciate the concern/offer Unfortunately, its not as simple as a money issue. I'm not out to family, and I don't really want to be right now, and I don't have anywhere I could store a binder (or god forbid, a packer), let alone wash it without it being seen. At the very least, my frustration...

I need binding and packing advice

I'm new to these boards, so I guess this could fall under 'gender' or 'bodies' but I was 100% so worst case scenario this just gets moved. (This could also be two different posts, but they're linked I guess, so convenience wins out) I'm not in a position right now where I can own a binder or packer,...
