Exmormon Memes

Pls stop me from looking at the notes of that last fcking post. I am over it im not going to look at it any more.

Zine applications are still open!

“I’d Like To Bear My Testimony” : A Queerstake Zine is a digital, nonprofit, independently-published zine exploring and telling the stories of LGBTQIA+ members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

It has an open application for poetry, essay, photography, memes, tweets, diary entries, art, writing, multimedia, comic, song, collages, etc- as long as it fits the theme “That Sunday” and relates to Mormonism and queerness. If this sounds interesting or would like to learn more, please take a look the pinned post for links and more information :)

Sad, angry, jealous, and guilty feelings can make you a healthier person. Figuring out the reason for your negative emotions and learning from unpleasant experiences makes you stronger, and that success can bring happiness- but when you suppress and ignore negative emotions, you eliminate the balance of good and bad. 

Because the contrast of feeling sad is what makes feeling happy so wonderful, happiness wouldn’t really exist if you’d never truly embraced your sadness.

I mean, you can either force yourself to marry a person of the opposite sex who you aren’t attracted to or you can remain celibate. 

You can marry the person of the opposite sex and acknowledge that you are attracted to the same sex too but are somehow “better” because you “rose above” it and only focused on the straight part of your bisexuality

You can ignore your dysphoria and issues with your gender identity or… nothing. Just ignore them. No transitioning to a new gender because God made you this way.

You can force yourself to marry and have kids or try to stay single instead of being comfortable with your asexuality

One partner. No open relationships, no polyamory. Nothing that isn’t a straight, monogamous relationship or no relationship at all.

“I’d like to bear my testimony” is a pg-13, digital, non-profit, queer+religious zine about the experiences of LGBT+ Mormons, presided by Harvey (A trans/queer ex-mo) based on the theme of “That Sunday”, and whatever that means to the contributor. Alternately if a more specific theme is wanted, “Fast/Testimony Sunday”.

“As this is a queer+religious zine, criticism, anger, mourning, and any stereo-typically negative emotion are going to be welcome and encouraged.”

POC gay, lesbian, bi, pan, asexual, aromantic, transgender, nonbinary, intersex, and agender exmo icons.
