The first time I 'took up' for a gay person, they automatically assumed I was gay and had refused to accept it. I feel like I'm being lumped in the group, so why not be tagged on at the end. I'm straight as the ace of spades as people used to say, but we are all human beings and I love to think someday it won't matter; that people are just people.
@@gjopp7251 um, but inclusivity is defined as giving people equal opportunies in representation and rights and so many more important parts of our lives. Cishet allo mono people who belong to the majority of the straight demographic cannot be classified as non-cishet allo mono people based on how supportive they are of human rights. Thus including them in the category doesn't make much sense... however this doesn't mean that they aren't allowed to live with and support the community to the fullest. A straight person can accompany their bi spouse to a parade A cis person can accompany their trans spouse to the community. A CHAMP relative can support their relatives Even if you dont have connections, you are welcome to support LGBT people. Just maybe not be classified as one. If you aren't related in any way to an LGBT person, it's better to not go into LGBT only spaces. Because you literally have the rest of the world to be safe in. Not disclusion. Just giving LGBTQ ppl the priority they have been denied.
@@gjopp7251 and what does that have to do with allies belonging in the lgbt community? like they are not lgbt and they are not a sexual or gender minority, as much as they support the community they do not face discrimination for their sexual or gender identity why do y'all even argue about this
@@driamhane LGBT haven't been denied. You all just want special rights. The equal rights clause in the constitution gives you inclusion. Stop shoving your agenda down our throats. Return the rainbow to God.
Yeah like??? Ally's ain't part of LGBTQ+ : supporting a marginalized group/community does NOT automatically make you a part of it. For example you are not black/a person of color, all of a sudden, because you started to supporting black people/people of color!
@@gjopp7251 you’re not gay or trans, so you’re not part of the LGBTQIA+ community. That’s literally the whole ass point. Sorry babe if you don’t like that
@@r0van425 The "whole ass point," babe, is that everyone strives to be equal, included, accepted for who they are, right? Yet there is still division, even in the "community." I don't even get why there needs to be a community. I know we must agree here, that there should be no division or bias based on gender orientation or identity. However since I am heterosexual, I'm "excluded" from the community. It's contradictory - discriminatory based on MY sexual and gender orientation. So I suppose hetero's are just served a dose of their own medicine by being excluded from these communities, after centuries of not recognizing these somewhat new social definitions.
@@krisalynini1065 Panromantic - _Romantically_ attracted to all people regardless of gender/sex. Say someone is both Pansexual ( Sexually attracted to all people regardless of gender/sex ) And Asexual ( _Not_ interested in having sex, but more so just a _romantic_ relationship ) the prefix of their sexuality would end in - romantic, as they’re only interested in a _romantic_ relationship.
Anna K and Brandy Peay, you're both wrong. Allies are people who actively advocate for lgbt rights that don't indentify as lgbt. They should be included because they're doing more than you two together to help gain rights because homophobes only listen to straight people arguments. Anyway that's why we banned sympathisers from the community: they were people who did nothing to help and only agreed with the lgbt community.
AqUeLe_homen_atraz do vide0 I’m sorry I don’t recall ever meeting you. How do you know personally what either of us have done for our community? Have a great day and thanks for the insight.
@@brandypeay5350 Yaah, I didn't mean to be rude like "you are worthless", sorry if you understood like that. Honestly, what I meant is that we (LGBTs) live in a small bubble, so allies can help us reach people far beyond. Examples of that is taylor swift, and others straight personalities that ACTIVELY help the community.
Rawbert Garcia dude that is so fucking stupid there is no perfect time to realize your sexuality. Figuring out your sexuality isn’t reserved for people who are 18+. I’m thirteen (fourteen now) and I know that I’m bisexual and I know who and what I like and I feel sorry that your so ignorant that you can’t understand what sexuality truly means that you’d bash on a twelve year old for knowing exactly who she is and just wanted to share on some place she thought would be safe because she’s happy that she knows herself so well. She literally was just trying to make other people feel better, your a dick.
I was wondering... I was thinking for the bisexual, it shouldn’t be shown as a point between heterosexual and homosexual because many bisexuals have a preference or a leaning attraction, or the majority of their attractions are to the opposite/same sex. Bisexuality can also be fluid and change over time. For myself, for example, I find that generally I have a leaning towards same sex attractions, physically and emotionally, but it's also fluid and I find myself more interested in the opposite sex some days than others. I think you should have showed it on a spectrum like you did intersex. Other than that, fantastic video! How this would have made my life easier to see in school...
Your sexual orientation could be fluid. I get this a lot too, actually. I'm mostly attracted to people of the same sex but there are days that I feel like I like the opposite sex way more than the same. I think it still counts as bisexual because you still like males and females it just fluctuates.
keck321 but many people have a leaning towards one gender. Some people may have more attractions to the same gender more than the opposite, but they identify as bisexual just like someone who has more attractions to the opposite gender more than the same. That means it shouldn’t be shown as a point between heterosexual and homosexual. It can also be fluid, another reason it should be a spectrum.
Bàmboo - yeah, I identify as bisexual pretty much because it's the easiest for people to understand, but I also could go by/connect with/ identify with others, like queer, fluid, pansexual, etc. Basically, I think anyone who is attracted to same and opposite gender/s can identify as bisexual if they want to. I don’t like to think of it as a limiting term that is 50/50, only includes binary genders, only attraction to 2 genders, etc. :)
Wolf Heart you just made my point... bi is exactly that... you like both sexes... maybe not equally, which is rare as fuck. We don’t need 50 definitions to say that you like both. Why do we need all these definitions to say “I like guys and girls?”
Congrats! I told both my mom and grandma.. My mom just kinda ignored it like i was confused and my nana was unsure if i was serious or not. Oh well, you win some you lose some!
4:14 AND it's never ok to ask them to show you a picture of them before they transitioned or their previous name. Espesially when you don't even know the person. Names may trigger dysphoria within them. They'll show/tell you if they want to. Don't pressure them 😊
@Tim Keir First of all, homosexuality is found in over a hundred other species. It's pretty damn natural. I couldn't give two shits about what your ancient book says, because the very same book you use to justify the slaughter of gay people, justifies sexism. And don't forget, nit everyone is Christian. So you using your beliefs to pressure them in to repressing their feelings so much they kill themselves, that seems like the Christian agenda now. And don't even @ me with your "Oh, you're discriminating against me for my religion!" I'm Christian too. The bible is so full of contradictions, it might as well be a half-assed fanfiction.
Tim Keir that’s funny. He doesn’t hate lgbtq people, but he finds a large part of their identity as disgusting? Buddy, your gonna have to bring in more reasons for people to take your inherently hateful ideology seriously than simply “Sky daddy said so”.
I'm actually crying bc I want to come out, but have never had the right words to say, or labels, and they aren't that important to me, but I know some people wouldn't understand if I didn't have a label, and the panromantic and asexual finally helped me find the right words thank you!
Oh my gosh, I needed this video. Thank you so much for posting this. I have a much better understanding of the LGBTQ+ community now. I am a cisgender Ally. Again, thank you!!
just an important thing. being 2-spirited is a cultural thing, and that means you cannot identify unless you are native american and all that. to many people have appropriated it and it's annoying.
@@brandiwithanIRN just because you don't understand it doesn't mean it's not important. Two spirit people were a very sacred thing in native american culture. they were healers and spiritual guides. appropriating that and saying your two spirit when you aren't native american takes away the sacredness of it and its extremely rude. its like just saying your a priest because you want to, you ruined the sacredness of it.
I am a cisgender female pansexual in a monogamous relationship with a female. I’m also a mom and a nursing student currently working as a bar manager. You can just call me Lee. 🤷♀️ lots of love filled with warm alohas from Hawaii
It’s great that this exists to educate, but I partially disagree. Allies are not part of the community but supporters. In my opinion there’s a difference. Not supposed to be rude, just my view!!! (I’m queer myself)
Iamlivinginmyownwonderland I think that ally was added to the acronym to have people who haven't come out of the closet, be a part of the community without coming out to their family.
Ally Champagne no, the plus is everything from pansexual/romantic, polysexual/romantic, non binary, two spirit, and anything in between. I’m sorry, but no letter is for the ally’s of this community. They are not part of the community, but we appreciate all ally’s that support us.
No, this doesn’t need to be taught in school. There’s never been a specific class for discussing sexual or romantic attraction, and the problem with that would be bias with teachers probably teaching more in favor of their own and making it something that should be on the forefront of children’s minds. No kind of attraction is taught; it’s something you discover within your own life. Yes, it’s more common for heterosexual and cisgendered people to exist, but it’s not taught. If it were, then people who don’t fall under that category wouldn’t exist. Wonder how long it’ll take to get this reply taken down...
I remember I asked a transgendered person where she was in her transformation without knowing it was offensive to ask. I felt so embarrassed. I'm glad this video is around to help others to not make the same mistake I did.
Cheesy Cheese where is the science in this though? They're not trying to say that if a male wants to be female they are biologically female ??? They're not trying to make any scientific claims at all ??
I am an Asexual Aromantic Pangender person: Asexual: I don’t want to have sex with anyone Aromantic: I don’t want a relationship other than friends Pangender: I am not a woman, a man, nonbinary, or anything else. *I AM ALL OF THEM TOGETHER, CREATING WHO I AM*
OMG YOU ACTUALLY MENTIONED ASEXUALS also thank you for saying that romantic and physical attraction are not the same thing and they don't necessarily always come together!
Technically they aren’t in the community, but they have the spot in the alphabet cause they have played a major role in the development of LGBT and deserve some recognition and love.
Thank you for including a part that says that romantic and sexual attractions don't have to align! A lot of people assume that because I'm panromantic, that also means I'm pansexual, but these suffixes are different FOR A REASON! THANK YOU!!
AnyaDicki6969 lol it does stand for aromantic/agender/asexual. there is no point in putting two A's in to the acronym. just like the second Q in the acronym is just useless.
Don't really know why this is in my recommended, but is very educational. Like the video, I think we should respect everyone. Too bad I wasn't taught that shit as a kid
The terms didn't exist when you were a kid though, only nowadays people are actually giving it proper names after defining and understand themselves without being killed by whatever that oppressed them in the past. What matters is that we know it now.
i’m cisgender girl and i think my orientation is heterosexual. There was a time, when i was thinking that i’m kinda bi, but i don’t really sure that it’s right now. So today i’m just chilling and love everything i am, and exploring the world of lgbtq+ community 💁🏻♀️✨
Whilst this is somewhat accurate, some parts are still inaccurate. 1) A does not stand for ally 2) bigender can be two different genders, not always male and female. A person could be m and nb, fm nb, fm m, and MANYOthers.
34 seconds in and I see ally in the acronym. Allies are amazing people but that doesn't mean they are LGBT! They just support LGBT rights. The second A stands for agender
1. Allies aren’t part of the community. A is for abrosexual, abroromantic, asexual, aromantic, and agender. 2. Bigender just means someone who experiences 2 genders. Not necessarily male and female. 3. Your pronouns don’t necessarily have to match your gender identity. Some boys use gender neutral or feminine pronouns, some girls use neutral or masculine pronouns, some non-binary people use feminine and/or masculine pronouns, some non-binary people use both they and he or she. There are way more terms, but I’ll give some grace there because it’s impossible to fit them all on a single paper. You’re welcome for correcting your mistakes. (Sorry if I misheard/misunderstood some of your words.)
Hold up we are already 0:33 seconds in and u got it twisted. *ALLIES ARE NOT APART OF THE COMMUNITY BECAUSE THEY DON'T GO INTO THE SAME HARDSHIPS BECAUSE OF THEIR SUPPORT*
Honey, I get that allies will never fully understand the experiences that people in the community go through, but there are hardships that aren't necessarily about sexuality/gender, and as much as we support you, it's kind of mean to say we don't belong in the same space as you do. I feel like every human goes through an identity chrisis once in their lives, and maybe our chrisis have more in common than you think.
I may be mistaken but I believe androgenous is a term used to describe a nonbinary appearance. In other words, androgeny is the mixed gender expression of both femininity and masculinity.
I’m an 11 year old pansexual girl. I haven’t come out to my household, but to most of my cousins. It’s not like I’m *not* proud of being different, it’s just I don’t want to be disapproved of.
I am a cis gender, Asexual, and panromantic. On the gender expression spectrum I am at neither extreme and tend to be in the middle. Thank you so much for this video!
As someone who is a part of the LGBT community I was always confused about multiple genders and never understood it. Now I feel closer to the community as ever, thank you for clearing things up❤️🧡💛💚💙
The concepts that they teach are still the concept you hold as a heterosexual male! As you said, "heterosexual" which in part of "sexuality" or "sexual orientation" or "sexual preference" and "male" which in part of "sex" which is biological. LGBT is just a community or organization. But these concepts are for everybody.
sexual orientation is not based on gender. It's based on sexual attraction to either the same sex, opposite sex or both sexes. If you are attracted to someone because they look like a member of the sex you are typically attracted to, that's ok, sexual attraction has a lot to do with appearances.
I'm a gay cis-gender male!!! I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!! My Dad needs to watch this video!!! Basically he doesn't like the fact that I'm gay. He just thinks that it's wrong, that it's a choice, and that it's a violation against nature. He NEEDS to be educated on this stuff!!!
I'm a part of the LGBT+ community, and this made me understand a lot more of the things I don't understand in the community. Especially gender expression. I'm a transgender male, but I like wearing make-up and such things.
This was going good until 5:22 when they said asexuals dont feel attraction to any gender. Asexual means they dont feel sexual attraction, they CAN still feel romantic attraction. Other than that this is a really good video
I’m a bisexual cisgender female :) btw, I was a little confused as to what the A stands for, I always see a different meaning (some say it is for Asexual, other say it is for Agender...). Is there anyway for me to know the official meaning?
I really want to show this video to my parents. I identify as lesbian and they claim to accept and support me, but they don't respect me. My mother thinks that I'm lesbian for attention, and my father completely ignores my sexuality. For an example of my mother: Once, I asked my parents if I was allowed to have a girlfriend since I was at the same age my sister was when she got a boyfriend. My mother yelled no and gave me a angry expression. For an example of my father: When my sister asked if she could go out on a date with a guy, my dad turned to me and said, "It's too bad he doesn't have a cute younger brother."
My daughter asked me to explain the term LGBTQ+ and I said I could give her the terms and some basics but realized quickly that I struggled to explain the differences re gender, sexual orientation etc. So thank you! Great video.
I'm a homosexual and tried to come out to my parents but they didn't respect my choice of being gay. So I only keep supporting myself during the hide in the closet. My entire family doesn't know even that I have an emotional attraction towards guys.
I'm a heterosexual and I found this video very helpful because I had some doubts about the LGBTQ+ community but never asked them to anyone that is part of it because it could offend them. So, thank you!
Wow! Thank you so much for teaching me all this information about my community! I barely knew anything about lgbtq+ but thanks to your video I learned a lot about the community and understand almost everything, Thank You! 😊
This is a great video, good job there. Because it is hard to include the first letter of every sexuality/gender identity, let's use SAGA as a synonym. S exuality A nd G ender A cceptance Plus it sounds cool.
As an ally, I've always been pretty sure that ally isn't a part of the community. Even though it's a kind notion, we aren't part of the community, though we support and love the LGBTQ+ community.
im still questioning my sexuality although i am 10. Is something wrong with that? I've had so many girl crushes. Trust me im really new to this- my life is gonna change lmAo. Edit : should i come out because honestly im afraid of what would happen. I am not trying to say it's easy to make a choice. I do not crossdress, i've liked boys, i like some girls, but what would i be if i joined the community? Oh god this makes me stressed.
I'm 10 as well, *nothing* is wrong with you, and I can give you a tip; ONLY come out if you're in a safe, supportive environment to live in as LGBTQ+. And also, you're probably Bisexual/Biromantic, Pansexual/Panromantic, or a mix (e.g pansexual/biromantic)
I am questioning and this video was amazingly helpful in identifying myself. I would also consider myself panromantic. I didn’t even know there was a term for people like us. I have just always felt a deeper sometimes romantic connection with both genders and it’s wonderful that there is a term, I feel so represented which feels amazing. Thank you so much 😊
My mom sent this to me and said that I can't use they/them pronouns because non binary people only use ze/zir pronouns and that they is a plural pronoun. I don't think she completed English class.
I identify as a Bisexual, nothing else, sometimes life is simple Edit: also Panromantic (that might get confusing but it's based on my views and opinions)
@Michael Standing just let them be, you fucking asshole. No one should have to conform to the norms of others if they don't feel like it. They can be whoever the fuck they want
I don't really like the neopronouns, I think they are a bit strange. I would still try to respect it but I have the same opinion to them as kalvin garrah if you know him. But all in all I agree with the things said in this video
ok fuck off then neopronoun users are superior. even if you don't like them you have to respect them and use them when referring to people who do use them.
Hi thanks so much for your videos. They were so helpful. I am a student in the counseling program and I am trying to learn as much as possible about the LGBTQ community. I would love to reach out to you. But I don’t know how.
Margalit Schindler, I was wondering if I could include a link to this video in my blog. I am looking to promote education on LGBTQQIAA+ related topics and would greatly appreciate it if you would allow me to use this. I know you said that we could share it on a social media platform and I just wanted to make sure. I consider a blog to be a social media platform, so if I don't receive a response within seventy-two hours, I will feel it is safe to assume that I can indeed post your video link on my blog. Thanks! -Allen.

Hi Margalit! I love your video so much! I am a progressive clergy person and support inclusion. I am doing a class called LGBTQ 101 at my welcoming and affirming church. I want to use your transcript but slower, to help people assimilate information, in a power point, but I would give you credit. Is that okay with you? I am not making any money off of this and will never. Free class for who wants to come, mostly parents and grandparents who want to be supportive but don't understand all the terms. I've also been asked to repeat the class at a senior living facility. Same idea...grandparents who want to understand how to be supportive of their grandchildren. What do you think?
Thanks for reaching out and asking! YES and YES - Please feel free to use this as an educational tool in support of equity and inclusion! You're welcome to use the transcript or show the video - whichever works best for your audience
