I have a lot of feelings that in a lot of ways, the acceptance and embrace of the LGBT community has mainly been extended to cis white gay men. Even within the LGBT community. Someone talk about these feelings with me.

I have a lot of feelings about wanting to label myself as a lesbian because it feels like I will have a defined community. It doesn’t really fit me correctly, but I crave solidarity with fellow queer women. Help?

Sometimes I feel like there’s the queer community and that it’s separate from the community of gay men. Sometimes it feels like they are not allies to the LGBT community at large. Is this their male privilege/toxic masculinity, or is it internalized homophobia on my end? Help me.
