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.

Our Partnered Discord Server: GayWave

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. This includes speculating about someones sexuality, no matter how "obvious" it may be.

~ 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.

I'm usually pretty gutter brained, but this one took me a second.

Honestly I think unless someone is gay thee generals public are going to just read it as MAMABEAR.

True. Pretty used to considering all gender and sexuality as spectra, where labels can feel arbitrary. But if someone thinks of it as gay, I accept the compliment.

I could see myself reading it either way depending on the layout. At least in my state, license plates have a space between the first 3 letters and the last four, so "M4M" would look a lot more like "M4F" and "F4M", which also seem commonly used, so its not like the notation is unique to gay people. And "bear" and "twink" are both pretty commonly understood.

Aren't you a (midnight) wolf? This is confusing

I'm a wolf that indulges in sweets and general over-eating... often. Chubby wolves can be bears, too :P
