Some FAQs

Do I have to medically transition to be trans?

No. You do not have to medically transition - The belief that you must transition is actually known as "gatekeeping" and is harmful - This specific gatekeeping is known as transmedicalism.

Can I change course if I realize I'm something else? Like if I'm non-binary and realize I'm something else for instance?

Yes. You can change course if you realize you're something else. It's okay to change your mind.

Plural is a term used to describe systems of multiple people in one body. While they might not be LGBTQ+ by default, they are often included in LGBTQ+ spaces due to the discrimination they face. It is important to respect their identities and pronouns. I also include information on plurality in this list because it is important to understand and respect plural systems.

If you've watched Yu Yu Hakusho, think of Sensui and his multiple personalities.

What is a therian?

A therian is someone who identifies as a non-human animal on a spiritual or psychological level. They are not LGBTQ+ by default, but they are often included in LGBTQ+ spaces due to the discrimination they face. It's important to respect them as well.

I think I'll need to research more on this topic before I can provide that much more info.

LGBTQ+ Stories

Directly LGBTQ+ Stories

I want to be a cute anime girl by Azul Crescent

Charon's sister dressed him up as a girl, and he liked it. This is her story, learning about who she is, and slowly realizing and becoming her true self, along with her friends and family. Updates on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.... most of the time.

Guilty Gear Strive (Bridget's story)

Bridget is a character in the Guilty Gear series. Though born male, because of a myth in her hometown, she was raised female, and wanted to disprove the myth and prove herself as a man at the time. After successfully doing so, she realized she was more comfortable a woman after all. You may have heard some bigots claiming that it was mistranslation - No, it was fully intended by the devs, and the japanese version clearly states that she's a girl.

Indirectly LGBTQ+ Stories/Resonant

Celeste

Help Madeline survive her inner demons on her journey to the top of Celeste Mountain, in this super-tight platformer from the creators of TowerFall. Brave hundreds of hand-crafted challenges, uncover devious secrets, and piece together the mystery of the mountain. Though not directly LGBTQ+, the game resonates heavily with many LGBTQ+ individuals due to its themes. The game's protagonist, though not overtly such in game, has been confirmed to be a transgender woman. The game's lead developer also realized she was trans whilst working on the final chapter of the game, she now goes by Maddy (full name Madeline Stephanie Thorson), she/her.
