Things Non-LGBT People Say...

Take your medicines honey. It will make the “ strangeness “ go away and you will be fit and back to normal in no time. Don’t worry, everything will be alright.

This was said to my friend when she tried to fend off her manager who was making unwanted advances towards a female coworker. She just told him that the girl was taken. He just assumed that my friend is a lesbian and told her to take meds. God, some people are unbelievable.

 

I hear this all the time from lgbt and non lgbt

“ Pansexual? What’s that? *I explain* Oh so your bisexual”

No.... I’m not.

 

"Now listen, I'm not a bigot, it's great that gays can marry! ... Just as long as they don't mess with me! XD XD XD Haha no homo!"
Trust me, these people think they're being progressive, they really do. They just also happen to be disgusted by gay people and want them as far away from their kids as possible. Smh

 

STORY OF MY LIFE

 

Loving but clueless Mom: Are you sure you don't want to be a boy?

Me: Mom, I like my gender and feel comfortable in my body. I like being a woman. I'm just gay.

Loving but confused mom: Ok.

A month later:

Loving but confused mom: So will you dress you know....

Me: Dress like what?

Mom: You know, like a guy.

Me: Mom, I've tried that, it's not my style.

What mom says: No it's not *smirks*

What she thinks: Of course you don't want to dress that way, you are NOT gay. You don't know I am right, but yes I am right.

*Internal screaming*

 

When one of my friends came out as Pan to his sister while I was hanging out with both of them something she said made both of us laugh (Me and my friend, it was my first time seeing his sister): "What so your addicted to frying pans?" needless to say all three of us saw the funny side to it and after he explained what Pansexual was to the family member she said: "As long as you are happy with the person you end up with we are happy" and weather or not his sister has outed him, I don't know but she doesn't seem like the kind of person who would do it without permission

 

There was a bi character in my book and I tried to explain what it meant to my 9-year-old sister. Except she misheard it as 'bee'. Now she is convinced bisexual people are called bees. I might have to correct her.

Also she thought it was a choice thing. Soooo not.

 

See, I have noticed that we dress better as a general rule, but there are straight guys that dress way better than me

 

No, don't correct her, let her correct herself when she figures it out

 

Okay, pronouns are hard, really really hard for a lot of people

 

At least you aren't a gay, conservative, rednack, Florida outdoorsman's association member

 

You can't blame them, when I thought I was straight, they made me uncomfortable because I was attracted to them without knowing it

 

Wow, I think someone cast a spell on me, because I legitimately was thinking about starting competitive fencing again and you just reminded me I was a fencer six years ago.

That is incredibly weird what the universe is doing to me.

 

Sure as hell is nice, but we do have a higher chance of STDs

 

I don't hate you for being a vegan, but I will still invite you to a barbeque, we make barbequed esperagus (really really good), meat-free shish kabobs, and veggie meat, I have no qualms about being inclusive. But, I do think you're missing out on bacon and brisket.

 

Or when someone says "you suck" yep, that generally is implied

 

Wait, he's gay? I had absolutely no clue.

 

So does my dad, he doesn't know, and when he makes jokes like this: "aids stands for another infected dick sucker", I have to laugh, and try not to die inside

 

My friend keeps asking if I'm celebate, it's the 8th grade, I'm not a whore, but I'm not a nun either

 

When everyone you've come out to so far thinks you're going through a phase. Only they weren't you dreaming about girls for the last 1 and half decade so how can they say such a thing?
