Do I even need to identify myself on the LGBTQ spectre?

You don't have to identify yourself on the LBGTQ spectre. Actually, that's what the "Q" means - questioning. You have time to figure it out.

No! every one is unique and special! you are you and you should be you!!! Don't label yourself if you feel you don't need to. for most I would think its more of a way to legitimize it. to feel more confident!

Not at all, you can be what or who you wish. The Q in LGBTQ means Queer, which is an umbrella term for everything else, which means you can choose whatever you wish, or not, all up to you c:

I do not think so. It is not that we need to note it on our CV or something. I also choose not to identify myself. I consider myself as a part of LGBT but with what? That part was complicated, because I am not really sure about my sexual orientation but I stopped thinking about as it was making me nervous. Just do whatever makes you feel better.

No! There are many people who either just identify as a 'non-heterosexual' or 'queer' person, or people who just say that they don't care/it doesn't matter to them! Everything is valid and if you feel that you don't want to put a label on your sexuality then do whatever makes you happy and comfortable in your own light.

you don't! if you don't like labels or you don't really feel you identify with any one specific thing in the lgbtq spectre, you can just be you! that isn't an issue.

If you don’t feel comfortable labelling yourself that’s perfectly okay, and normal 💖 Some people find security in labels and some people find them confining, everyone is different. Whether you’re unsure of how to identify yourself or you feel pressured to even though you’d prefer not to understanding how you identify is a complex thing and is unique for everyone. The Q in LGBTQ+ stands for queer which is an umbrella term for anyone who identifies as anything other than heterosexual or cisgender and also stands for questioning if you feel unsure of your sexuality. Many people take comfort in using the terms queer or questioning and some take comfort in not using labels at all. No matter the circumstance take time to figure out what works for you, sexuality is fluid 🌈 Hope this helped x

You don't have to label yourself. As long as you are comfortable with yourself, that's all that matters.

Nope! Identities are just a way that you can more simply convert how you feel to others but they’re not a requirement of being LGBT. What matters the most is that you’re being true to yourself and if you don’t ever want to label that that’s okay. You are valid with a label or without one and you are LGBT with a label or without one. Some people may choose to label themselves because they’re comfortable with it and it helps them identify who they are but there are still many who choose not to because maybe they don’t feel like any label accurately represents them or it’s just a personal choice.

Labels are only there to be used if you're comfortable with them. If they're more of a burden than a useful tool of self-identification, you're free not to use them! You can just live you life, follow your heart, be yourself and do what makes you feel good. Identifying yourself with one identity is ok if it makes you feel better, but it's not mandatory.
