It may seem excessive but the amount of creeps/pedophiles that have to be dealt with on this subreddit daily we'd rather not have a bunch of shirtless pictures of underage users and if we had exceptions for people not showing very much as in the past then people just try to push the rule as far as they can so we just outright don't allow it at all. Questions about sex, bottom surgery photos, stories of personal experiences, and discussions about porn or sex work are all acceptable, but please tag them NSFW for other users' comfort and safety. Edit: I love that most people actually understand the point I’m trying to make here but for the ones that don’t, I just want to say that I was that Christian who thought anything gay was bad and who was raised to believe the LGBT+ community was going to hell and I wanted to be an ‘ally’ too because I couldn’t be brave enough to come to terms with my own sexuality, but I could at least support the people who were.

Message the mods for approval before posting a questionnaire, survey, promotion, or advertisement. Please review our guidelines for these types of post. For Research Surveys, please send in a ModMail to r/LGBTstudies, as that’s where you’ll be directed to if you message us. Granting recognition of same-sex relationships, and ensuring that transgender individuals are able to obtain identity documents that reflect their preferred gender without abusive requirements LGBT only covers four umbrella identities: gay, lesbian, bisexual and trans. Since the formation of the initialism, the spectrum of sexuality has become more visible and more accepted. To put it simply, "LGBT" just isn't enough anymore.

If you make a post that is triggering, NSFW, photo-manipulated, or otherwise deserving of one of the tags we have for posts, make sure to flair it appropriately. We want everyone to feel safe here, and we want to make sure that they're not running into posts that would harm their mental health if they weren't prepared for it.

We are NOT a dating community/replacement for a dating app in ANY form, we do not allow location discussion or discussion of wanting to find a partner/hinting at how you are single in any way here. We used to be more lax on this discussion but with issues recently we don't feel comfortable allowing the leniency to continue. Keep your relationship status out of your post, this is a place to post selfies not to hookup/date (Mind you 99.99% of the users are 13-18 years old). Don't even mention pedophilia, MAP, or any related subjects. There is no connection to the LGBT+ community, so it does not belong here. Posts will be removed and a ban may occur after warning. Related comments will be removed.This is very closely tied to the previous question. Someone who is a masculine woman or a feminine man typically does not have any body dysphoria; those things are generally considered a social presentation. The broad concept of gender also includes “gender identity”, which is an innate sense of self that can also be called “brain sex”. Gender identity tends to be much more physical than clothes or gender roles. I don't experience dysphoria, am I still trans? Gender dysphoria describes the "unease or dissatisfaction" some people feel about the difference between their biological sex and gender identity

This question typically stems from the idea that gender is purely a social construct. Generally, dysphoria is not just a social thing about activities or dress. Instead, dysphoria often presents as discomfort with a body, and since men and women have different physical features associated with the terms, the physical body has a large part to play in the transgender experience. Everyone has a mental map of their body, and for trans people this often does not align with their physical body. If a mental map includes a flat chest and a penis, then a stereotypically female body causes distress in that person. But if gender is a social construct, can't you just be a masculine woman or a feminine man? Any sexually charged/inappropriate pictures/titles/comments will be removed at the moderators discretion, it isn't hard to post a normal selfie you are not here to advertise your body/assets so keep the picture ÜBER PG (Maid outfits/Sketchy/High skirts etc not allowed) and any post removed under this rule is final, repeated offences may result in a permanent ban. As long as there are communities on Reddit dedicated to spreading hate or othering marginalized groups, and as long as the admins permit individual users to preach bigotry, this is going to keep happening," said Koronicus. If you are a trans person creating an account to post here, try answering some questions on r/asktransgender, etc. and waiting a little while before you post. Meme templates or memes are not allowed as posts in the sub. If you wanna post a meme, do it in a dedicated meme sub, like r/me_irlgbt. This is a comic sub, first and foremost, so any meme material will be deleted.

This should be obvious, no homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, Etc. If you come here to say how much you hate LGBT people, you'll be banned, no exceptions. Discrimination against LGBTI people undermines the human rights principles outlined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Yet discrimination and violence against people in the LGBTI community are all too common. Homophobic, biphobic and transphobic attitudes remain deeply embedded in many cultures around the world. Multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination In a human rights context, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people face both common and distinct challenges. Intersex people (those born with atypical sex characteristics) suffer some of the same kinds of human rights violations as lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender, people. They also face institutional violence within healthcare systems, with lifelong consequences to their physical and psychological health. Read more about Intersex people and the human rights violations they face. We are a majorly minor focused userbase and as such we will no longer allow location mentions/discussion in titles or in images (in the thread as well). We are not a meetup subreddit in any form and are not here to connect people physically just a place to post selfies and that's it, any more than that would be a danger to our userbase and we do not wish to encourage that behaviour and as such are strict on location discussion. No possibly identifying information either, even remotely.
