Welcome to /c/Gay - Your LGBTQ+ Haven

We're more than just a community; we're your haven for celebrating LGBTQ+ culture and connecting with like-minded individuals.

Community Rules:

~ 1. No bigotry. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 4. Keep it LGBTQ+ related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love posts but 3-4 in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Hey, please report any transphobia so I can take care of it or an admin if they see it in the queue first. That being said, if you can, also please shoot me a private message on this account with a link to the offending content. Or shoot me a message on Discord (I'm in the Lemmy.world discord channel) with a link to the content.

Notifications don't happen for reports or anything and I have to jump across two different accounts and check modqueues due to federation being a lil wonky. I don't always catch them on that second account because I use it less often. So please shoot me a message with any reports <3 Thanks!

On the one hand, I really want this T-shirt. On the other hand, I'm no longer very intimidating so it doesn't really work. :-(

I've been repeatedly described as having "resting murder face". Ignoring my size, that alone usually gets people to clear out.

I need this shirt so bad

Yeah, that's me. Unless I'm smiling or laughing my face is just completely emotionless.

Never heard it called "Resting murder face" before but I'm stealing it...

I can't remember where I heard it but it's accurate. It also doesn't help that I don't blink very often and I just stare off into space while having some ADHD daydreams. I've seen people get up and move to the other end of the bus or subway car because I was just zoned out and thinking. They looked genuinely scared and kept looking back down at me.

It's so bad that if I'm walking around at night or something and the only other person around is a woman I tend to just start playing up the gay mannerisms because otherwise I've had people genuinely look shaken. I dunno if you've heard the bit from John Mulaney about essentially chasing a woman in the middle of the night with her freaking the hell out but that has more or less happened to me and I'm really trying not to repeat that lol

"Oh thank dog, I hear sirens. They'll catch that crazy guy chasing us!"

I want this shirt, and my spinniest of skirts.

I'm even willing to let my beard grow back in. Go full "crazed mountain man" with it.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

Get enough friends to wear it with you and it won't be a problem

[–] [email protected] 47 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Hey, I’m a big white guy with a beard, and I think I need this shirt!

I don’t do baseball hats and mirrored shades though. I wouldn’t want to look like a domestic terrorist or something.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 11 months ago (3 children)

The hat with the rainbow bear tho!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

I couldn't do it. Too many people think I'm gay when I'm not, without sending mixed messages with a rainbow bear.....

If you aren't aware, a "bear" is a type of gay guy.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

As a gay, I know what a bear is. I eat bears for breakfast
