Hi, this might not belong on this site but there's nowhere else I can think of to go. I am an actress, and these days social media is being taken into account more and more in regards to casting choices. I haven't worn makeup except for shows (and prom) in over a year. I've been feeling better about...

Hi! I feel awful even writing this out, to be honest. I want to know how to stop feeling this way. I’ll start at the beginning. I was having trouble masturbating (due to sensory processing issues/sensory overwhelm) so in order to do it I began to imagine my body away and pretend the only part of my ...

Thank you! I was wondering because I feel like there's an added pressure and self-examination about a lot of areas of one's life when they (me) are lgbtq+ (or at least L) and that kind of feels like it's stemming off from that feeling of sticking out a little more. Yes. Well, I know she is pretty ce...

is "i have a crush on her and I know we are both teenagers but since it probably won't work out long term I don't want to pursue it even though we could probably have a really sweet high school romance but since we're probably matrimonially incompatible I don't want to start a relationship"...

Hi! I totally understand what you mean by rules. Good for you! Anything that works is probably good, in my opinion. I've had one relationship, and it stemmed from a healthy friendship. Every good relationship I have observed started and (possibly) ended with a healthy friendship. Basically, start of...

Hi! I'm not out to most of my friends. If I link Her to my instagram does it say so on my account or is it discrete? Does it make it so whoever I match with on Her can see my ig even if it's private? Basically does anyone know how the app works?

Phallus is super Greek and pretentious and fancy. Simply "penis" should work for a mature (as in age and seriousness) audience.

Thank you so much, Jacob, for your response. I think what you picked up on about the rule following makes a lot of sense with what I know about myself. However, the part about being allowed to identify as straight, for me, is being allowed to identify as gay, and I phrased it to reflect other people...

I have had a boyfriend for a year and a half. I felt very attracted to him at first. Once I began questioning about whether I was bisexual, I started feeling less attraction and more anxiety about sensual relations, but I thought it was just ocd. I even began wishing he was a girl, but I thought it ...

Thank you. I will. This answer really helped me.

I'm a big musical theatre person so these might be out of fashion but "Ten Minutes Ago" and "the Sweetest Sound" from Cinderella are amazing. "I'm in Love with a Wonderful Guy" from South Pacific is really cute.

I'm feeling sad/nervous just typing this out tbh. I really want to break up with my boyfriend. He's done nothing wrong, he's an angel, I just think it's time for me to move on (and we live far apart, and during the relationship I realized I was more interested in girls, and a few other reasons), and...

Hi, Rin, I don't know a lot about dating, either, but I do know that if you're looking for a group of really accepting people where a large portion are more likely to be LGBQTIA+, try arts/theatre groups. Theatre is where I really managed to begin to figure out my identity, and it's where I finished...

Tbh I'm not really interested in porn, but I think as long as it's safe for the actors and watchers that it's a really cool concept, both so people can learn about bodies and what they like and also get new, creative ideas. The main problems with it, I think, are that actors in porn are often treate...

That sounds like a good plan. Thank you.

Thanks, Sam. I think part of it may have been overwhelm/overload because of the newness of the experience and how different it is from anything else, and that made me kind of curl up inwardly. I generally do feel like other people with sexualities other than straight are "realer" than me. ...

I don't want to butt into this conversation and I don't know how you approached this girl, but perhaps one issue is that you're looking for a relationship with sexual intimacy at the forefront of your mind? I've only ever had one relationship, and then it took years for me to develop even a first da...

I personally love Victor Victoria (I think it was 1983) because Julie Andrews is brilliant and it's a frank, open and funny movie. The aesthetics are really beautiful. It takes place in 1930's France, and while it deals with heavy issues it also is light, funny and (again with Julie Andrews) has som...

After wrestling with my identity for a long time, I settled on pan and was very comfortable. Last night, I went to a midnight Rocky Horror Picture Show thing, which is a very safe, freeing and fun place to be, but for some reason the whole experience threw me for a loop and now I feel extremely unco...

Thank you. Yeah, Closetedsapphicopinions.tumblr.com is actually my favorite blog, haha (don't worry, the mod has permission from the first blog). I'm really glad to hear that you did something like this too... Like I figured as much, but reinforcement is good? Thank you so much honestly.

I just really solidified my orientation as not-straight after questioning for years. I have a lovely boyfriend who is also not straight. He goes to a boarding school and we see each other every so often, but we use facebook and texting to keep in touch. I've known him for a long time, as our parents...

I think so. And I know that I can know who I am without having a 100% orientation, I think It's maybe more I want to figure out which space I occupy, if that makes sense? But honestly I've been on this site for a few hours and it's helped me already. Thank you so much!

Thank you so much! I read the article. So is questioning sort of label on its own? I think I'm just a little impatient to figure out who I am. ☺

I've been questioning my sexuality for about a year now. I know I like boys, and I'm dating one currently, and I used to be 100% sure I was straight. But recently I've really begun to appreciate girls. I definitely find them more aesthetically pleasing than I do boys, and I'm more likely to think a ...

Loona, Have you been going outside? I've had problems similar to his that ended up being a vitamin D deficiency. I know that during the school year, it's a lot easier to get up and walk around and get sun, especially on am outdoor campus or somewhere where you walk to school or do afterschool sports...
