One of the prides I have living in Canada is that Canada is considered the safest country for LGBTQ people. We even added LGBTQ into our laws as a protected minority group.

[Account_Not_Applicable]

I remember when I started to think I may be asexual (I'm actually more Demisexual, but same umbrella), and I told my sisters. They both kinda brushed it off, but then a while later they said how they "consulted the spirits" via a handmade spirit board. When they asked the spirits if I was gay, they replied"no, " but when asked if I was straight, the spirits said "no" to that as well. "So what _are_ you??"
I just deadpanned, "I told you, I'm Ace."

So even if my sisters at the time didn't get it, at least I know I'm completely valid in the eyes of nonspecific spirits of the paranormal variety ♡

My favorite accidental ally thing I've ever encountered IRL is someone telling my demisexual friend "You just haven't met the right person yet." Like... yeah, that's the definition of demisexuality.

This reminds me... When I had just started my transition (MtF) I went shopping with one of my best friends (male), and the cashier insisted after seeing the name on my card that my "boyfriend" had to sign for the receipt. I told her no, that's my card. She didn't believe me, because I was CLEARLY a lady, and the name was quite obviously male.

This was before hormones or any surgery or anything. I had only let my hair grow out, shaved and was wearing a poofy dress to hide my (lack of) curves.

I don't think she was even trying to be mean or anything, she just saw a woman, in male company, paying with a card that has a male name on it and guessed that it must be the "husband"'s card.
But that still was such an amazing, affirming moment for me, it's really hard to put into words the joy I felt when I realized what had happened.

The only gender reveal that I full heartedly supported was a gender reveal party that parents had for their teenage trans kid. It was a “sorry, we got it wrong 15 years ago”.

5:03 reminds me of that one meme with "Me looking for the country with the 🏳‍⚧ flag because all the cute girls have it in their bio" and a video of a dude tearing through a jungle with a machete <3

The "Satan Respects Pronouns" wasn't actually an accidental ally! It's from a designer that makes a slew of pastel queer stuff. Really glad to hear their designs are making it more mainstream, 'cause they're pretty kickass. In case you couldn't read it in the video, it's Abprallen - I know them from Etsy, but they might be on other platforms.

Lady with the 8 billion genders made my jaw drop. That is the most affirming, most positive, and probably the most wholesome mentality towards gender I have ever heard. "You are your own gender, " is such an endearing thought to tell people, that I would treat her to as many meals as my wallet would allow.

Wholesome Ally Moment: I came out to my Christian grandparents and they supported me, grandma was like "Feel free to come to the door and introduce me to your girlfriend"
I was crying- 🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈

I have a “whoops, I helped them” moment too. I work at a magazine and we have a page where us employees comment on stuff. It has our name and picture.
I only figured out last year I’m a trans guy (I’m in my 30s), so before that I obviously had a woman’s name, but I already had short hair and didn’t dress femininely.
So a reader sent me a nasty handwritten letter about how ugly I am and that I look like I’d prefer to be a man and whatnot. I received said letter right after figuring out as trans, so the letter actually helped me with coming out: I’d show it to my coworkers cause it was hilarious and then I could go “you know they have a point when they write I look like I’d rather be a man cause surprise, I’m trans!”
The letter was so helpful cause finding the right moment to come out is so hard.

By now we use a new photo in our magazines with my new name and I really hope I’ll get another letter from that person. I’d love to hear their opinion 🤣

[Robinthedinasaur]

OK, I'm biologically female but I'm a nonbinary Lesbian using they/he pronouns. One time in school someone tried to mock me saying: "he looks like a lesbian" it was quit nice to see that he got what I was going for.

[lucykitsune]

The funniest thing about trans women being banned from entering the miss Italy competition is that it implies that trans women have a natural advantage over cis women when it comes to wearing nice outfits and looking pretty in them

[LoremIpsum-dpli]

20:40 Fun fact: The first gender reveal was held because the mother kept having one miscarriage after another and this was the first time the baby had survived long enough for her to know their sex. The mother did not intend for it to be such a big thing and has since disavowed them, both because of the dangerous ones involving wildfires and alligators, and because the very same baby from the first reveal (who is now a girl who wears suits – though not non-binary, as the Reddit comment said) taught her about the diversity of gender.

[Arty_Mester]

Here’s an actually wholesome for you.
I’m a transgender man. I’m underage and live with my parents but they are divorced. My mom is Christian and my dad is atheist. Ever since I was a little kid every night before bed my dad and I would say goodnight to eachother in French. I have been learning French since kindergarten and my dad is interested in learning. The first line from either of us was always. dad:“bon nuit mon petit Mademoiselle.” (Goodnight my little lady) me: “bon nuit papa.” (Goodnight dad) then we would go on with the rest. I came out to him about a year ago. And that night when I went to bed he said to me. “Bon nuit mon petit monsieur” (goodnight my little Mr/man) I swear I responded with tears in my eyes. Ever since that day he has called me by l preferred pronouns. Only used my nickname when saying my name (my nickname is gender neutral) and introduced me to people as his son. He is the most supportive person I have in my life and I love him.

When I was pregnant with our first child my husband's very conservative christian grandmother asked whether we knew if the baby was a girl or a boy. We told her we didn't want to find out, since it didn't matter, and her reply was "I guess you don't know for sure until they are about five or so anyway"
It has nothing to do with this video, but it's so wholesome I like to tell the story whenever I have the chance.

[christopherb]

20:40 The original gender reveal came from a mother who miscarried many, many times before pregnancy stuck, and they were just so happy it goylt far enough that sex could be told. She doesn't understand the psychotic tradition of bravado, pollution and explosions either.

[LadyGameProfessor]

Pregnancy and labor can be terrifying and painful. For me, the idea of having a fun party with a nice cake that had a secret color inside letting me know "surprise, it's a [sex]" was something that helped me push through some of the more painful early parts of my VERY difficult pregnancy. If my child later comes out as trans, that's OK! It doesn't take away the fun of that party or the loving memories we all shared of that experience. Whenever they were ready, I would just offer to throw a SECOND "gender reveal" with a new cake for my kid's coming out party!

[cola]

36:42 I did have an unintentional impact tho.
There was/is a bug in Starfield where you suddenly can't shoot, and the solution found by fans was unironically "go trans".

[kimhohlmayer]

As a Christian who believes that people in the LGBTQ+ community will make it to Heaven I LOVE the rainbow baptism!!! God loves ALL his children!

[iiantixsocial]

I always find it hilarious how transphobes confuse the terms "trans men" and "trans women". They think the "woman" or "man" part is towards their sex assigned at birth, when it's referring to their gender identity 💀
