Hey guys!

What you mean is that you are straight and cis. LGBTQIA+ people are also regular people. There is nothing wrong with us, nothing unusual about us. We are all normal people (well, no one’s really normal are they but we’re as normal as any straight, cis person) It is discriminatory to imply that LGBTQIA+ people are not regular people

I didn’t mean that I meant that I’m not LGBTQIA + I didn’t meant you are not people or even regular people

Simply being who are you and being confident is a way to show pride.

Though it seems by the comments you’re wanting to know in terms of crochet projects?

If not necessarily crochet stuff you could look into ways people used to flag/signal their queer identities through subtle things like wearing a ribbon & hair clips (IIRC). Or hairstyles, piercings etc that other ways to flag/signal. Think about what signals to you someone is likely queer without ever speaking with them.

You might also consider putting flags or pride colors in the insides of clothing or projects (if you do your own laundry).

But really existing as you is resistance and a way to show pride.

I find being in community helps me feel connected and prideful.

Sorry that your parent(s) isn’t /arent supportive. That’s gotta be really tough :two_hearts:

I was looking for anything, although crochet is definitely a major option since that’s my main craft type. Ty for the support and it is hard to hide a part of myself like that. Community is really good to help me have an outlet. And I guess I could somehow make Pride earrings or something. I cant really do a hairstyle cause I just got it cut super short (up to my ears) so possibly something accessories related.
