So, with our town having a pride parade next week, me and ZAZ couldn't help but wonder to ourselves why there isn't an Origin Pride yet? It'd be a topic just like this, where all our lovely community can come together and express themselves, no matter who they may be or what they identify as.
I wouldn't want to exclude anyone of course; this is all about being proud to be who you are. Whether you fit into the LGBTQ+ umbrella or not, or even just wanna show support for friends. Feel free to talk about your feelings, ask for or offer advice, or just introduce yourself as who you are(I for one, feel that this can lift a weight from the chest)... even just a leisurely chat with friends! You don't need to be shy here.
Anything and anyone is welcome here!
(Obviously though, have respect for everyone else and general rules apply. I know that the community here is amazing but just in case anything out of the ordinary does happen, I want everyone reassured that any disrespect won't be tolerated. ^^)
The most important thing about this thread is being yourself. I know a lot of the Origin community can relate to similar things and that this is a more welcoming community than any other I've ever seen.
And so, to kick this off, I'll introduce myself as the person behind the screen;
My name is Miles! I'm 19, bisexual, transgender male (formerly identifying as genderfluid) I've felt uncertain of myself for quite some time and I know that many other people will have the same. Origin has given me a safe haven like none I've found before, where I'm free to be me, and where I want others to feel the same.
