#queer community – @louve-garoue on Tumblr

Don't you fucking love this awesome Pride flag created by Rachel Lense for NASA? It's specifically made up of NASA images as follows: White is Earth clouds, pink is aurora, blue is the Sun in a specific wavelength, brown is Jupiter clouds, black is the Hubble deep field, red is the top of sprites, orange is a Mars crater, yellow is the surface of Io, green is a lake with algae, blue is Neptune, and purple is the Crab Nebula in a specific wavelength.

❤️ - What are your pronouns ?

I mainly use She/Her :). However my comprehension of the concept of gender is very fuzzy and confusing. I'm gendervoid and which pronouns you use to refer to me are kinda meaningless to me ? I mainly use She/Her because those were the ones affiliated to me at birth, and thus the ones I'm used to. But I have no problem being called He/Him or They/Them or any other pronouns :). TL; dr : any pronoun is fine :D

💛 - Who or what made you realize you were queer ?

Well I wanted to know what was the difference between pansexual and bisexual so I looked it up on Wikipedia ! And by looking it up there I also article on other sexualities, notably asexual, and since I was curious I read them ! At the asexuality one I was "ooooh this is me !" and then I forgot about it... Oops ahah, I guess it didn't seems important to me at the time ? I just classified it as a fun fact about myself and moved on ??

I rediscovered the queer community like 1 or 2 years later and remembered that wikipedia article and realization that I had. And by then I was way more familiar with the internet than I was before, so I dip deeper into the queer community and was able to question and discover myself way more through fully ! And this time it was important to me, probably because this time I could actually see and interact with the community for myself instead of just knowing it existed from a wikipedia page... (PS : this story might not be completely true as my memory is not the best and tend to mix things up a lot, also measuring the passage of time is hard)

🌾 - How queer do you think you look? Would it be obvious to someone that you were queer if they looked at you?

Not queer at all ~~unfortunatly~~. I could wear the Pride Flag as a T-shirt and people would assume I'm an ally XD.

🌱 - How would your younger self act if your current self told them they were queer?

That would depend on which "younger self" you ask. My young teen self would be "oh yeah that make sense" and maybe start looking into the queer community once more. My pre-teen self would be "Oh, ok" and would not be very interested (I think...). And my child self would be a little confused at first and ask questions about until she either gets the full picture of what being queer meant or either get frustrated that she can't get it fully by now and give up on it.

All of these books are queer, but they all have back blurbs that don’t say they’re queer. While this can be a pain if I’m scouting for queer SFF, it can come in handy for people in a situation where they don’t want to be reading queer books openly.

Please do note that I don’t have hard copies of the books on hand so it’s possible that an author quote or something mentions one being queer (I feel like this isn’t super likely, but I don’t want to rule it out). Some might also have author biographies mentioning that the author is queer. Also, some may be shelved as LGBT on Goodreads or categorized as queer on Amazon. So if you’re planning on asking for any of these as holiday gifts, I would suggest going to the Amazon page or where ever your relative is likely to buy it from and double check that it’s something you’d be comfortable with sharing openly.

I wish I had more pansexual books, but the ones I know of tend to mention queerness in the back description.

With the exception of The Spy with the Red Balloon, these are all books I have read or are currently reading. If you want to recommend others, feel free to do so in the replies!

You can find my other queer book recommendations here.

Links to the queer books database (or Goodreads if the book hasn’t been added yet) are available below the cut. You can find information on content warnings there.

We are LIVE

Hi everyone, I'm Mod Nick (Ze/Zir) and this is LGBTQ-N-A: A LGBT ask blog where anyone can ask a question about the LGBTQ+ community.

The rules on this blog are simple: be respectful of eachother or get out. The people who come to this blog are from all walks of life, with different beliefs and backgrounds. This blogs purpose is to be a safe space for people to come, learn, say and ask the potentially offensive questions, and -most importantly- learn.

Some of the topics I cover may be disturbing, or triggering, and I will tag appropriately.

I think that's everything, so welcome!

Alright everyone, the LGBT ask blog is live. And asks are open (I think, I'm gonna double check that in a second).

I'm thinking of doing a once monthly history post, with history of the community. But that's tentative for now. Right now, I just want to spread the word.
