    Most of them were dead, dying, or hiding away with survivor's guilt by the time we Gay Gen-Xers started coming out, so we came out alone _and angry._ Because not only had almost all of our mentors died, they died slowly and horribly while the straights watched on with glee.

    EDIT: Also I think what is happening with the explosion of people identifying as non-straight, is that a lot more "edge cases" are choosing to identify as LGBTQ+ compared to prior generations. For example, my mother (Gen X) identifies as a cis-het woman, but she has always had moods when she feels more masculine, meaning that by strict definitions, she would be genderfluid. My friend's father (Boomer) identified as a straight man, but he engaged in physical relationships with other men and all of his friends were gay men. My step mother (Gen X) also had physical relationships with other women. These are all individuals who because of the time they were raised in, identified as cis-het. To my knowledge, none of them were "closeted"- in the sense that they weren't publicly identifying as straight to protect themselves, they just didn't think too deeply about it all and were comfortable enough with societal expectations. If they were Gen Z, maybe they would have all identified as queer.
    The Silent Generation is before the boomers. They are called that because a huge chunk of them died in world war 2. Not sure if this is a separate generation from the Traditionalists or not? It could be an over-lapping generation thing, like how some Millenials' parents are Boomers and some are Gen X. Maybe some Boomer's parents are Silent Generation and some are Traditionalists?
    Anyway, Gen X doesn't have another name, as far as I know, but they were the ones who were coming of age in the 80s. The generation after Gen Z is currently being called Gen Alpha, but I feel like sometimes it takes awhile for a generation name to really stick.

      The Silent Generation (for the U.S.) is my parent's generation, 1928-1945 (Mom in '28, Dad in '31). So, Great Depression through World War II births. At least for the U.S. (where I am) they weren't much involved in the war, as they were too young for service (though my mom did have some returning soldiers finish high school with her). Apparently they are the same as the Traditionalists, though I don't know that I'd ever heard of that. At least part of the silence was there weren't that many of them to begin with, since the depression and then the war were dampers on reproduction (which is part of what made the Baby Boom such a big deal), and then moving into the 50s (their young adulthood and teens) it was a pretty good to time to remain silent (unless you really were traditionalist, and that doesn't really set you apart from the preceding generation, so who'd notice). I mean, compared to the pre-war leftist movements and the counterculture of the sixties, they really were pretty quiet.
      I've always felt kind of out of place, being solidly demographically Gen X (1970), but the child of Silent Generation parents, all of whose other children were Baby Boomers (and all on their own with children by the time I was 5), and then having my own child in 2005 (Gen Z). So I wasn't raised by people who had the same generational background or assumption as my folks, nor was my kid in comparison to their peers.

For example, a nonbinary doctor used the pronoun "they" in English, and was referred to as "Doctore" in Spanish, as opposed to "doctor" or "doctora".

If the people who name generations wanted to be uncreative again and use a variable, it should have been Y and Alpha just doesn’t work at all by that logic. Neither name makes sense.

    I just dyed my hair pink, too! Well, I died all of it blue, but the very front and my temples didn’t take the blue, so I made them pink. So, my hair is blue, with pink highlights.
    Also, wanted to point out that most of the people who died during the height of AIDS were gen X. Also, I think a lot of millennials are realizing that they’re LGBTQ+ all the time. Just saying, I’m about to turn 40, and I didn’t realize that I was trans until like 6 years ago.

    The Asexuals invading Denmark thing is a meme based on a statistic meant to help bring visibility to asexuality. Roughly 1% of the earth's population identifies as Asexual, or at the time of the meme, 75 million people. That is "More than the population of Denmark." Hence the meme, "Asexuals could invade Denmark."

    I realised I was bi when I got my first crush on a member ofvthe opposite gender and thought this was the same thing I've already experienced. I didn't have the word for it at the time, but I sure knew how I felt. Discovering the term Pan later and deciding that it was less accurate for me personally was a much more involved process.

      I knew I was Bi (just didn’t know the term) when I was 7. It was a day when I noticed the ‘cute girls’ being followed around by their ‘cute Boyfriends’. Seriously, it’s always been a part of me, but one I couldn’t openly declare until last year.

    18:50 that's a very weird choice for the borders of Gen Z and Gen Alpha. The more accepted one would be around 1997-2012. Most people described to be Gen Z would not fall under that specific definition provided on this image (and Gen Z would be weirdly short.)

    I'm no 40 & haven't come out to any family or friends.
    I feel like it would be super weird for me to go almost half my lifespan and not say anything.
    But, I'm also still working it all out for myself and finding where I actually stand.
    Sadly, my psychiatrist of almost 11 years is a *huge* bigot! I'm mean a straight cis right wing catholic bigot!
    When I tried to bring up the topic, he became transphobic, a bit homophobic also dismissive of gender identity and segguality.
    So that "safe space" went to 💩 real quick.
    Not too sure how I'm going to do this and still working it all out for me. But just know, you don't have to be a specific age to come out.
    You do you and do it when you're ready.
    I think telling my family would be the weirdest.
    Hugs to all the older millennials and gen x who are still "working it all out".
    As well as everybody else on that journey. ❤❤

    • @CorwinFound
      @CorwinFound 5 місяців тому +17

      As a trans guy who came out at 45 I can confirm that it gets a bit weird. But let's face it, with some people there is no "appropriate age." I came out as bi to my mom when I was 20 and she didn't believe me. 15 years later she actually said to me, "You can't be bisexual if you've never had sex with a woman!" I didn't get into the obvious fallacy but instead responded, " What makes you think I haven't had sex with women?"
      Now that I'm a guy I have no idea how she processes that. But I've come out twice, young and old, and neither was super fun with my family.
      Sorry about your therapist. Good luck on finding a new one who is validating and with everything else.

      @CorwinFound that's intense. I'm sorry your mum was/is like that.
      Sadly, I have seen this Dr 11 years, and he's attached to a very specific hospital that I need access to. So I actually can't just change Dr's all of a sudden.
      I'm not actually sure what to do.
      My dad helps me to pay for said Dr as psychiatry costs a lot in Australia, sadly. Also, I'm not too sure if my dad would be willing to assist in payments if I eventually made the shift.
      This Dr, on every other mental health aspect, is very, very good. 1 of the top in their field in the country.
      It's unfortunately when things are LGBTQIA plus related that they're weird about it all.
      I'm seeking options but at this stage I have to stay with them. I'm seeing them in the next hour and half funnily enough.
      I think I'd like some professional guidance in working out who I am and how I identify and then also have said guidance on "coming out" as a more mature person, as it's never easy anyway, but when you're older and your family think they know you, well....
      Thanks for the comment and all the best to you.

    • @MidnightSonnet
      @MidnightSonnet 5 місяців тому +8

      I'm 41 and feel this on a very personal level. It feels so damn weird going half of your life not knowing exactly who you are. Then when you come out, you feel rather sad and bitter that you spent your young years not being the real you. I knew I wasn't straight when I had my first crush on a woman at 21. Realized I was nonbinary/agender at 29, but didn't fully embrace it till early last year. THEN realizing I'm on the ace spectrum within the same time frame was a lot to process. Still is, honestly.
      I haven't come out to my mom and sister yet. I'm wary of it, even though I'm sure they'll be somewhat accepting. When my sister and I were young, my mom sat us down and told us she'd support us if we were gay. Her reaction when I got my first girlfriend was... distant and silent. She was supportive in her own weird way, but not very accepting. Hypocrisy. Her behavior during that time is making me hesitate coming out to her. Feels weird as a middle aged person to be scared of your family's approval, but in my case, lots of trauma play into that.
      Anyway, please find a new therapist. The one you have now is making things worse for you, which is the opposite of how a therapist is supposed to make you feel. People like that shouldn't be therapists. I've actually made it a hard rule for myself that I would only see therapists that are queer friendly, which isn't difficult since I live in California. There are therapists that don't know how to handle non-cis people, though. They can handle various sexual orientations, but not gender identities. We're getting better as a society when it comes to these things, but we still have a way to go.
      You're not alone. 💜🌈

      I just turned 40. It took me until just a few years ago to figure out I'm asexual. Did not take me long to come out since all my friends and family are either part of the LGBT+ community or Allies. They were pretty clueless about asexuals except for my friend who around the same time came out as biromantic demisexual and my sister who came out to me as biromantic gray-sexual when I came out to her as ace.

    Honestly I hope when it gets over 60% that people finally just let it go and let people be who they are. And we end up in a place where people don't have to come out or say anything about being gay, it's just accepted. Like in The 100 but without the apocalypses part XD Where someone's like "We have to check out the crash site, his boyfriend was on that ship" and no one bats an eye. Or when Clark tells her mom she's upset because she was in love with Lexa, and her mom's is just like "I know it hurts baby" because any relationship is valid. That's the kind of social structure I hope LGBT+ people can look forward too
