The letters LGBTQ are just another way of saying that Love is Love.
Should the 'B' Be Removed from 'LGBTQ'?
I recently saw an online post stating that the B should be removed from LGBTQ. As a bisexual myself, this really made me think. The argument was that bisexual individuals have it "easier" than gay people—the reason being that it's easier to hide your sexuality as a bisexual person. Which is mostly true, a gay person may enter a heterosexual relationship in order to hide their true sexual preferences, thus entirely denying who they are—whilst a bisexual would be able to quite happily live in a relationship with someone of the opposite sex. I agreed with this until someone said to me, "But what if you're a bisexual who's in love with someone of the same gender. You'd still be unhappy with your heterosexual relationship, even if you are still attracted to members of the opposite sex." Again, this is true. A gay person would be unhappy hiding who they really are, but being bisexual doesn't automatically mean you're not unhappy about hiding your feelings.

Goodbye, Debbie Fox
The last time I was with my friend Debbie we never laughed quite as much as we used to. We had a good time together as always, but not crazy giggling that usually characterised our get togethers. We'd decided to go to the Euro pride Mardi Gras in Manchester together. I'd only made up my mind I was going the day before, and I'm so glad I went now.

Is This the Dawning of the Age of the Twink?
So the New York Times recently published an article written by Nick Haramis entitled “Welcome to the Age of the Twink” which is a horrifying title. It sounds like the opening line to a conservative’s nightmare about a gay Hunger Games. Like, first they wanted to get married, now they want blood. It’s not just their nightmare either; it’s mine too.

Surprise, I Am Gay
Picture this... Nice cool November night in Arizona, just got off work from an exhaustively long shift at Chick-Fil-A in the mall. It's an election year and politics are everywhere. I am not much for politics and I definitely am not the type to stress about who the president of the United States of America will be, I wanted to vote for Harambe the gorilla. My partner at the time, however, did care. She cared to a level of pure stress on the subject.

Enough
Here’s something that I need people to understand because it’s been bothering me ever since I saw a post somewhere a few days ago. The post basically was someone saying ‘When I’m on T, promote me to this!’ and joined with said caption was a t-shirt that bore the word DADDY on it.

My First Lesbian Relationship Pt. 4
At this point in our relationship, we weren't even together for six months yet and life events were taking its toll on both me and my fiancé. She was dealing with all of the stress from her family drama and I was stressing because I was hearing all of what was going on and there was absolutely nothing that I could do to help. From Thanksgiving, up until now everything was going wrong for us. Not with our relationship but with all of the outside factors. Things just could not go right for us... and it hasn't changed since.

My First Lesbian Relationship Pt. 3
*Brace yourself for an emotional story* So I believe that I left off on pt. two with my fiancee's ex texting her to wish her a Happy New Year. Like I said before, I was obviously upset over this. For one, that woman literally cost her nearly $1,000 in damages and two, they both moved on. Why was my fiancee on her mind? And aside from that, did she really think my fiancee would want to hear from her?
