-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Personally I think these numbers reflect levels of acceptance amonst generation vs actual % lgbtq+. Real number is probably closer to Gen z stats I would think.
LOL I don’t think people just suddenly became more gay over the last 80 years. This more likely reflects how people publicly identify and society’s acceptance and perceptions.
I’d bet the distribution across the spectrum has been roughly the same since humans had the concept of such social constructs.
These damn computers are turning gen z gay
It's the hormones in the water
