https://blog.spacehey.comForum Topic created by heathhttps://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=410490https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=410490Poland here! About our LGBT rights here, well... It's somewhat confusing. There is a lot of people who accept everyone from LGBT umbrella, there are some people who don't accept only trans people, and there are people who hate all queer people no matter what. And the funny part is that all these are big part of society. Same sex couples can't even get registered their relationship, and when it com...Mon, 27 Mar 2023 09:36:48 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=316255https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=316255its not bad here gay marriage has been legal since 2003 and gay sex has been legal since 1969Mon, 10 Oct 2022 00:52:20 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=246367https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=246367Hi! I live in Latvia. I'm not sure if gay marriage is legal yet. I'm very lucky that most of the people i've come out to have accepted me, or just made fun of me (not bulling just the annoying stuff). Thu, 28 Apr 2022 13:04:43 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=237281https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=237281I live in australia and... Wow this country is not the best at accepting queer people... (I'll be talking about my observations and perspective) I'll mainly talk about high school cause i'm 13 and yes high schoolers are BRUTAL WHEN IT COMES TO QUEER PEOPLE (SAME WITH POC) TWs: Homophobia and r@cisim (I'll mention it) if you wants a study on how austrlian highschoolers deal with LGBTQ+ related topi...Sat, 09 Apr 2022 15:56:35 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=235771https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=235771i live in the philippines. im not rlly out or anything but ive observed how different people treat gay people or the lgbt community in general. disclaimer: these come from my own observations and perspective so im not gonna speak for all of us in here lol ive asked my mom what she thinks of gay people and she said the very well known "i dont support them, but i respect them" bs. same with my dad. ...Thu, 07 Apr 2022 13:51:00 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=226254https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=226254From Germany, from the political view it's not the best but not the worst either, on the social side I thought it was pretty okay, because I'm honestly to insecure to be on social media apps where people actually know me, but my best friend got in a wlw relationship for the first time and she is very active, now she gets serious threats and it's pretty horrible tbh :(Sat, 26 Mar 2022 19:19:41 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=215862https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=215862 I'm from the USA but i live in Texas soo that's just great i live in a big city in Texas with a LOT of church's who don't like the Lgbtq+ community but funny things i'm out in my church so everyone just kinda stays away from me except my friends    Sat, 19 Mar 2022 02:35:40 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=214413https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=214413mostly 12 year old boys are homophobes here, idk it's kinda okay depending on where u live Fri, 18 Mar 2022 16:21:07 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=213719https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=213719Helloo! I am from Sweden. Most people here are pretty accepting and we have good discrimination laws here that protects people in the lgbtq community. Unfortunately there's still a lot of homophobia here and tons of transphobia if u live in a smaller city. You most likely won't get hatecrimed but u might get some stares and face stereotypes and judgements. The school I go to has pride flags everyw...Fri, 18 Mar 2022 08:56:01 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=203948https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=203948I'm in the U.S. Florida to be exact T-T... it's not the greatest but it's not the worst either. Earlier this month the passed a "don't say gay" bill which basically you can't talk about LGBTQ topics in school. Also, where I live, I can be walking to class and get called a slur but honestly it is what it is and I'm not gonna listen to someone who wears Axe body spray.Fri, 18 Mar 2022 03:32:27 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=193345https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=193345I don't think i have to say a lot: HungarySat, 12 Mar 2022 16:39:47 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=185590https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=185590I come from Poland, and right now the situation is critical for us hereWed, 16 Feb 2022 11:15:36 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=160784https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=160784Also from Australia. I find Australia to be very binary when it comes to LGBTQ+.  I've always found it hard to pin down my sexuality, and nowadays just call myself queer.  That has been very hard for people to understand though.  I sat through many a drunken night in my 20's telling people that no, I'm not a lesbian.  Yes I know I like women, but I'm not a lesbian. In my teens & early 20's I was v...Sat, 01 Jan 2022 02:15:01 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=122041https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=122041Im from England, being lgbt+ it kinda depends where in the country you are. The younger generation is a lot more accepting then elders. Slurs are said like they are just words such as the T slur... and D slur as not many people are educated on why its bad. Even though slurs are noramlised the majority of the country doesnt mind lgbt+ Sat, 27 Nov 2021 23:23:19 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=116452https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=116452hey! I'm from Madrid, Spain and the situation right here is more or less good. I cannot talk about rural Spain but I've never had a real problem with it. However I must say that I was not out in high school and from my friends and stuff that's mainly where they experienced homophobia, and also I guess I'm kind of straight passing? anyways my mom for example doesn't let me tell my grandmother which...Wed, 24 Nov 2021 14:41:07 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=68374https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=68374I'm from the USA so I don't have it bad as most but I am also from the state of Texas specifically a smaller town in the middle of no where (a city is easier)... It sucks. Texas is also currently trying to take away our federal right to marry (and any rights they can get their hands on if they can) since they feel they don't have to listen to anyone above them so there's that...

I came out to my entire class as pansexual (not yet as demigirl, we've been in lockdown for quite a while and I figured it out during lockdown) quite easily, no one really minded. New Zealand is pretty supportive of LGBTQ+ we had a no-uniform day during Pride Month this year and my teacher let us all make pride posters and he stuck them to our window so other p...Sat, 06 Nov 2021 04:46:08 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=55161https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=55161Hello, I am from Peru  here in Peru we have a homophobic president and sexual diversity in Peru still faces social and legal discrimination. Homosexual relations have not been subject to any kind of civil or criminal sanction since 1924. Like heterosexual relations, they are legal between consenting persons over the age of 14. However, an exception for members of the police and armed forces, who c...Wed, 06 Oct 2021 14:46:52 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=49858https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=49858I'm from the UK and people accept the LGBT+ for the most part.Sun, 22 Aug 2021 18:48:40 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=42887https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=42887im from America which i think is highlighted a Lot online ... while we have Some rights things could definitely be better. especially since our rights are being debated every day by conservatives in office who really want to take them away from us. i do acknowledged how privileged i am, because i could be in a country where being gay is strictly outlawed. however i do wish certain aspects were bet...Sat, 03 Jul 2021 06:54:15 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=41627https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=41627I'm from Latvia and LGBTQ+ rights are...interesting here, to say the least. It's ranked to be as one of the worst places to be queer in Europe (not as bad as Poland or Hungary tho). Like you cannot even register a domestic partnership here! It's pretty much very hush hush here (mostly because of the boomers from the USSR times) and the homophobes are mostly just all bark no bite...except in April ...Mon, 21 Jun 2021 13:28:51 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=38825https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=38825Here in Norway, the majority of the population is pro LGTB, so in other words Norwegians are a very accepting and tolerant people, for the most part. That's not to say homophobia doesn't exist here because it definitely does and we do read stories from time to time of gay people being victim of blind violence stemming from other people's homophobic attitude, which is terrible but what's even more ...Sun, 06 Jun 2021 12:33:37 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=38744https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=38744I am from Santiago, Chile. And to be honest, things are not so good in many aspects for LGBTQ+ people. I mean, there is a law against discrimination (created after the murder of a man named Daniel Zamudio), but it's not really enough, cause that is not always respected by people. I personally can go outside and still have the fear of being discriminated (or even k*lled) if I act the way I am or so...Sun, 06 Jun 2021 03:09:16 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=38632https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=38632To my friend from Argentina I’m guessing Buenos Aires has the most crime towards LGBT because big cities are a melting pot of people you can always find very tolerant people in them and also those who are ultra conservative and bigoted. In Canada where I live, most people accept LGBT people not just gay but even trans people, here it’s very common to say each other’s pronouns and people have their...Sun, 06 Jun 2021 01:33:55 +0000https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=38594https://forum.spacehey.com/reply?id=38594Im from Argentina, Buenos Aires! Gay marriage is available for us, we can report discrimination and trans people can get their id's changed.  The bad side is my province has the highest rate of hate crimes tho its also the most accepting or progressive so its weird, the rest of the provinces up north are more close minded and im pretty sure hate crimes there go unreported or smth.
