What a pleasant job description it is to be paid north of RM20,000 every month, only to ocassionally get to his feet and speaks on what nurses wear at work. Ironically, those nurses are at work long hours, standing/running, for a fraction of RM20k.

I am a frum person and a member of the Orthodox community. I don't have a great answer to every complicated question. But if you're LGBTQ, I will [continue to] fight TOOTH AND NAIL for your place in my communities. I'm here and I'm not going anywhere. That is all.

The guy next to me at the clinic was on his 13th year after his initial diagnosis. Every time it comes back, he told me, (he’s on his fourth relapse) there’s been a new treatment that has saved him.

One of the best parts of transition has been the nights I lay awake in bed, overwhelmed with happiness that I can finally be me. I get to have this life. What I've always wanted is actually, finally, here 💕

This is the poster btw. Does it say we're not "friendly" to LGBT? No, it mentions: discrimination, harm, murder rates, worker protections, hate crimes, legality, criminalization of violence You're happy LGBT Malaysians are at extremely high risk of facing that?

So what is wrong if we sit at the bottom of the list for countries that are friendly with the LGBT concept? Apa aku mati nanti itu yg ditanya ke? Yes, I agree kita kena bantu golongan tu tapi it does not mean we have to condone the lifestyle. Dia ingat agama ni macam trend… Show more

I know many young Malaysians are self-conscious about you speak in English and whether you are fluent enough and etc etc but honestly, many many Western people don’t speak or write anywhere near your ability and yet their confidence is off the charts 😖🤣 So yes, you can do it

When surveyors came to his Cherating house recently, Razali Awang thought his long struggle with the land office to own the land is finally over. Instead, he was told that his house is in the way of the access road to the ECRL station, and needs to be demolished.

Actual real life heterosexuals telling me that: YES, they have indeed been made to feel ashamed of their heterosexuality throughout their entire lives... And their example is *drum roll* 'One time someone called me cis-het on Twitter' Oh honey booboo bear...

So, no flag for you. No parade for you. At least not for being straight or for being cisgender. Be thankful that you will probably never require one. In the meantime be supportive if you can, join in if you like. Or just close your eyes for a month... Happy Pride 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ /16

It would be perceived as cruel. Pride is a ubiquitous human emotion. LGBTQ+ people don't own it. Privilege is a ubiquitous human trait. LGBTQ+ people aren't free of it. But in this one way society divides people up, you are on the side that is deemed 'better'. So, be kind. 14/

A straight flag, a cisgender parade, would not be about pride. (How can you be proud of being universally 'acceptable'). Instead it would be perceived as crowing over your own privilege within this one arena: Celebrating your comfort, your security, your normality. 13/

Finally, have you struggled to find stories of people that had the same sexuality and gender expression as you? Has it even occured that this could be a thing? If you go to a library, would it be a challenge to find something written by a straight cisgender person? 10/

Also, without a flag or a parade, have you ever struggled to find other cisgender heterosexual people? Have you ever thought 'I'm the only cisgender heterosexual person that I know and I'm completely alone'? I can guarantee most queer young people have felt the equivalent. 9/
