I am a Christian and I don’t think you look queer enough. Jk you look wonderful and I support you unconditionally! I am sorry so many Christians are such cunts. They need to shut up because I am pretty sure Jesus said “thou shalt not be a twat” or something pretty similar.
I'm a pretty devout Christian and I'm not upset or triggered at all. I see a person who knows who they are and is representing themselves, in the most (as the people above said) dapper way! You look great! Go piss off those evangelicals please! 😁
I'm Christian. The only thing that upsets me is that you think you'd upset me lol
I'd be one of the first to walk "straight" up to you and compliment your outfit and your looks. 
Ikr? I'm so so so soooo sorry. It breaks my heart every time. If I see it, I say something and don't hesitate to jump in for the rights of all God's creatures. 
I sincerely wish there were more Christians like you. You are one of the very few (in comparison to others) Christians I've come across in recent memory to stand up for our rights as LGBTQ+ people, and for that I applaud and salute you.
Also, try to consider that there are more of me than you think. At the very least, at least 75% of Christians will give you a chance, regardless of what they've been taught, so long as you're polite and nice. For real. Plus it's an aging population so younger, more hip with the times people are coming in.
I hope you're right. From my own personal experience based on Christians I've seen online and in real life, that unfortunately doesn't appear to be the case. Almost all Christians I've ever seen on the Internet and IRL are very bigoted towards LGBTQ+ people and you are one of the rare exceptions. Maybe there are more Christians that support LGBTQ+ than I thought but the bigoted ones just have the far louder voices. But I really hope you're right that there are more of you than I think, because you are fighting the good fight and the world really needs a lot more people like you
Just like almost every group.
The screaming extremist feminists.
The conservatives who are incapable of tolerating anything new.
The gym idiots who laugh at people who aren't fit.
There is always a loud minority who gives the quiet majority a bad name.
75%, as a former Christian, is wildly overestimating it. I’d say that overall it could be as many as 45-55%. It’s a polarising issue but most (especially older or more conservative) Christians are supremely intolerant of any kind of queer person, and many of those who at the very least “don’t mind” gay people are exponentially more critical of bisexuals like myself, and then far more strongly opposed again to trans and non binary people.
Might be affected by where we live, I suppose. The third world often lags behind in terms of tolerance, although from what I see of the US, UK and even Europe I’m not even sure anymore.
I’m glad you seem to be one of the exceedingly rare “open Christians”, but what feels like the majority of your and my (former) ilk are properly rotten bastards.
Thanks! Didn’t even notice. I’ll make a meme on some bi sub just now.
Pansexuals and bisexuals have odds with one another, yeah. Still not decided how much of a fuck I give about that whole mess. Then the odd gay person saying bi people are sluts, or trans person assuming that bi is trans exclusive/anti-enby and some stupid prick being exactly that kind of horrible bi person. Idk though, mostly happens online. Queer people IRL have been great to me. Most younger straight people too.
That last line I couldn’t agree with more. Seems like people are all constantly flipping Two Face’s morality coin, and sometimes it lands on the same side for months or even years until you forget it’s there.
Then those 75% of Christians need to be screaming at the top of their lungs to denounce the other 25% at every opportunity. The fact that they don't, the fact that the people who bother to say anything at all can't or won't offer more than a weak "we're not like other Christians" is unacceptable. It's only minimally better than "thoughts and prayers." Those who say nothing (read: the vast majority of your 75%) are giving tacit approval to these people. Their passivity actively harms us. I'm glad you call people out for spreading bullshit, but other than that, your words ring hollow; your brethren's silence speaks louder than your words.
I empathize with your inner rage. Especially when considering the really horrible crimes which have been committed against lgbtq+ people. I don't have what will feel like a very good answer as to why the silent majority hasn't spoken up more.
My theory is it's a lot like abortion or racist jokes or how we're all to afraid to just walk out of all our jobs and say we won't be your commodities anymore. We're scared. We need whatever little support we already have and we're not sure others will support us.
Make no mistake, my rage is very much outer rage.
Also, you're scared? You're afraid to lose support? We lose support from our family, our friends, our *literal government.* We're scared to lose our *lives.* We fight day in and day out to put an end to this. I came out of the closet 21 years ago. It was effectively illegal to be gay in my home state when I came out. I lived in California when I was given the right to marry for the first time. I fought tooth and nail to little effect as the people took that right away from me less than a year later. I got the right again, but how long before that changes? This time, I'm already married, and who can say whether our marriages will be invalidated this time? I've fought this fight and fought this fight and fought this fight. I am livid. I am exhausted. I am extremely disappointed, disheartened, and dehumanized. You're scared. I at least had some respect for you until you opened your mouth and that tone deaf crap fell out. Get a grip. Check your privilege. Think before you speak. Do. Better.
Agreed! There are entire denominations that are LGBTQ-affirming, including PCUSA (Presbyterians), ELCA (Lutherans), and many others. My husband is a gay pastor after all.
Just a heads up they aren't getting upset at you, they're using you to mask negative feelings they already have.
Remember that next time. It makes dealing with them 1000x more effective.
I love everything about this picture. Your outfit is incredible. Your hair is the most gorgeous shade of pink. You have a dalmatian thingy and a colour coordinated bookshelf. Love it.
That is exactly the problem, the vocal minority self proclaimed Christians, they make us all look bad. As Christians we should follow the main thing that our main religion is based upon, Jesus Christ, once said: love the other just like you'd love yourself.
Trust me when I say that the real Christians are pissed that these self proclaimed "Christians" are hating on people. That is not what our religion is about.
I’m Christian and you’re making me very upset…. Upset with the fact that I wanna be you 🥺 love the outfit and hair style! GOALS
Edit: Also I just love seeing other Christians comment similar things. We’re a small group, but its refreshing to see other Christian being uplifting in LGBTQ spaces.
Please don't lump us all in with the idiots... Many of us just follow Jesus' message and not the hate and bigotry that has come along with "organized religion" that has been corrupted beyond repair.
Nice outfit and I hope you have a great day!
Evangelical (M38) here: gets confused at the post text and somewhat envious I can't dress that well - though that may me a confidence/choice of clothing ownership problem.
Looks great though, good job!
Yeah! Genderflux :) means my gender shifts throughout the day but the usual meaning is that there's a fluctuation in the intensity of the gender e.g demi-boy in the morning but girl in the afternoon and genderless at night ♡
I'm a Christian and I am super upset.
Just not at you... mostly at the folks who twist the teachings that hippy Jesus to be hateful shits.
Gonna echo others, you look dapper!
I'm a genderqueer Christian who's also demisexual. I see that you look pretty cool and I wish I could look more like you. (You know, short hair, wearing what feels comfy without judgement)
You look incredible, but you know not all Christians are homophobic/transphobic, right? Some folks are very supportive, or even trans/queer themselves.
Being a Christian doesn’t mean I dislike your choices or wish you anything but the best. And it doesn’t matter if I’m the exception to the rule…that’s why blanket statements are silly in the first place: they don’t define everyone in a group they’re being used to define.
what if we didn't generalize christians? like I know some of them are really terrible, but also generalization is something that this community strongly fights against, right?
You look fantastic, love your hair.
I do have to ask though, is this not the same energy as some redneck putting on a MAGA hat and saying "time to own some libs"
There isn't a person in the world who looks bad dressed in a Victorian style, unfortunately where I live it's too hot for me to dress like that
btw, can you give me your look? i want to copy it someday
as a christian why would I be upset? enjoy your life you only get 1. If you can truly say you are happy all the way through your soul, then who am I to judge? (he who is blameless cast the first stone) If I’m right, God will sort it out and I don’t have a say in anyone else’s eternity or life. If I’m wrong? Then I guess we are just biological machines or in the matrix *shrug* looks spiffy!
Btw I’m sorry for the bozzos who say ‘Christian’ but ignore the message.
I mean fuck Christianity but this is kind of the same energy as a conservative posting a mirror selfie and saying “about to trigger the libs”. You do look great though!

Same. There's more loving Christians than you think. We just have to work on being louder than those hateful asshats. You look great by the way!
As a Christian, but huge supporter of LGBTQ+ rights, that is the most dapper person I've ever seen.
As a Christian minister, very very very very dapper. And as we all know, dapperlyness is next to Godliness.
Exactly the words that came to mind.
Stole my thunder.
The dapperiest
Thanks for all the kind words y’all! Also update, I put on black nail polish too 😂
I'm Christian, and I'm upset I don't look as good as you do. #😉
Not a Christian, but I too am upset that I'll never look that sharp.
I’m Mormon and same here as i am too part of the community
I’m a Christian and this is extremely upsetting, the phone and that bar is covering part of you, I can’t see the entirety of your amazing face.
I'm a pretty devout Christian and I'm not upset or triggered at all. I see a person who knows who they are and is representing themselves, in the most (as the people above said) dapper way! You look great! Go piss off those evangelicals please! 😁
But they're clearly wearing cloth of two kinds of materials! /s
Loving this vest. Looking great OP 
Your hair is.. amazing. Almost making me wanna impulsively dye mine the same colour
Used to be a brighter pink but it didn’t last long..
The faded looks awesome. I love your style! True swag
Overtone shampoo & conditioner is awesome:) when my hair was short and pink like that I used Overtone to sustain the color.
And some gays happy. You look mighty fine!
Not just gays. This is amazing.
Not just gays! People in general! :)
That is true!
I feel like Richard Simmons would be pleased
I love your hair, I love your vest, and I do hope you make some homophobes and/or transphobes very angry! <3
1, good work, I'm super jealous. 2, be careful there seems to be an amorphous dalmatian creature following you around.
This Christian is upset. Upset I cannot know you in person 🥰
Same
You look amazing, I absolutely love that vest! Are the chains there simply decorative or are you sporting a pocket watch too?
Sadly decorative! I had a watch but it broke a long time ago :(
Ah that's a shame, I love a good pocket watch myself, though I can't actually pull off any kind of outfit one would go with.
As a christian ace you look SPLENDID
A conversation with my roommate about with look: "Fancy fancy fancy!" "That's a cool outfit!"
I’m a christian and trans, but I love it
Dude got the Silco Arcane drip
I’m Christian and I love it 😭💗
Dont wanna be creepy but omg your so pretty
You're thinking too small. There's way more people to make upset besides Christians.
This Christian says you are very dapper! (I’m right I the middle of both, as a transgender)
I'm Christian. The only thing that upsets me is that you think you'd upset me lol I'd be one of the first to walk "straight" up to you and compliment your outfit and your looks. 
No offense, but you are the exception, not the rule, otherwise, our lives would be way way easier literally everywhere in the World...
Ikr? I'm so so so soooo sorry. It breaks my heart every time. If I see it, I say something and don't hesitate to jump in for the rights of all God's creatures.

Christian here also. Your looking fresh! I wish I has your fashion sense.
Just a heads up they aren't getting upset at you, they're using you to mask negative feelings they already have. Remember that next time. It makes dealing with them 1000x more effective.
You look great in that bro
As a representative for the Christian gays you look good
Ayo same
I like the waistcoat.
I love the very dapper outfit.
I love everything about this picture. Your outfit is incredible. Your hair is the most gorgeous shade of pink. You have a dalmatian thingy and a colour coordinated bookshelf. Love it.
Christians hate vests
As a Christian I can confirm, we are very pro sleeve
Only fake Christians would be upset. Real ones accept people and love them.

you want a pocket watch and monocle with that, buddy? (looks pretty good btw)
Devilishly fancy. Go spread the gospel of our dark lord.
OMG *blushes, then faints*
The words gay, dapper, and drip may not be commonly associated with one another, but holy damn do you have all of them.
This is Barbershop quartet dapper level.
I’m only upset that you don’t have a killer top hat to go with your outfit!
Uhhh why would they be upset?
If they get upset by your outfit, they are not good Christians
I've always enjoyed "The hetero's are upsetero's"
Please don't lump us all in with the idiots... Many of us just follow Jesus' message and not the hate and bigotry that has come along with "organized religion" that has been corrupted beyond repair. Nice outfit and I hope you have a great day!
Evangelical (M38) here: gets confused at the post text and somewhat envious I can't dress that well - though that may me a confidence/choice of clothing ownership problem. Looks great though, good job!
This doesn't offend christians. It offends bigots. They're not the same thing.
If someone says you're going to hell just reply with "well I do have to make it to work on time" lol
p,,,,,pretty,,,,,
Would you mind telling me what flag is in your flair? I haven't seen it and I'm not sure what to google.
Yeah! Genderflux :) means my gender shifts throughout the day but the usual meaning is that there's a fluctuation in the intensity of the gender e.g demi-boy in the morning but girl in the afternoon and genderless at night ♡
it's the genderflux flag ☺
I really like your style😌
you're doing gods work, or... ig not actually huh
You look stunning!
Reminds me of Dutch Van Der Linde in RDR2
They just need a **plan**
"Vi stands for Violence" :D
So stylish! You look like a character from *Arcane*!
The fact that this vest exists and I don't own it is very upsetting. I also love your hair
Not just incredibly dapper, but incredibly dashing! I wonder how far you'll go!
You look AMAZING, love the hair too 💜
I'm upset by the size of your flat!
Goddamn, you looking dapper as hell! Fucking love it!
I'm not upset im bloody impressed with your look.
Im upset now
This is giving me outfit ideas to wear to my cousins LGBT wedding 😍😍😍🏳️🌈
*scrolls to bottom of comments* It's like an arbitrarily large number of miraculously replicating fish in a barrel.
Nice bookshelf organization!
So much gender
I'm a Christian and I am super upset. Just not at you... mostly at the folks who twist the teachings that hippy Jesus to be hateful shits. Gonna echo others, you look dapper!
I'm a genderqueer Christian who's also demisexual. I see that you look pretty cool and I wish I could look more like you. (You know, short hair, wearing what feels comfy without judgement)
My dude! Where did you get this fit?! I would pay good money for a look like that! 
You look incredible, but you know not all Christians are homophobic/transphobic, right? Some folks are very supportive, or even trans/queer themselves.
i am a christian and I can officially say i am not upset/offended by this post, u be u
As a christian I feel the need to tell you that your outfit looks cool and have a nice day
Being a Christian doesn’t mean I dislike your choices or wish you anything but the best. And it doesn’t matter if I’m the exception to the rule…that’s why blanket statements are silly in the first place: they don’t define everyone in a group they’re being used to define.
doing god's work😌
I'm Christian, and this doesn't upset me. You failed fabulously.
Christian here, and I have to say . . . I love your hair and that vest, and you have an incredible sense of style!
Yeah i am Christian but the only thing that hurts is that you but all of us in the same category
what if we didn't generalize christians? like I know some of them are really terrible, but also generalization is something that this community strongly fights against, right?
Christian here, you look awesome!
You look fantastic, love your hair. I do have to ask though, is this not the same energy as some redneck putting on a MAGA hat and saying "time to own some libs"
Where did you get your outfit? Been trying to find a dope vest like that for awhile, you look absolutely amazing btw
Christians aren’t offended by this. Close minded, hate filled, bigots are
There isn't a person in the world who looks bad dressed in a Victorian style, unfortunately where I live it's too hot for me to dress like that btw, can you give me your look? i want to copy it someday
This is like those “time to make liberals triggered” pictures
break their bubble, break their frame of the world. show them the true spectrum of the world
As an enby I emby your style
You must be eyecandy the way the sweet palette fits 💅
I’m Christian…

Christians get upset by the clothes you wear ?
as a christian why would I be upset? enjoy your life you only get 1. If you can truly say you are happy all the way through your soul, then who am I to judge? (he who is blameless cast the first stone) If I’m right, God will sort it out and I don’t have a say in anyone else’s eternity or life. If I’m wrong? Then I guess we are just biological machines or in the matrix *shrug* looks spiffy! Btw I’m sorry for the bozzos who say ‘Christian’ but ignore the message.
Those shelves look mighty dusty
The dust on that black furniture matches the cart box next to it, those angry christians would have at least cleaned the house.
Looks like a hotel uniform
Why tho, its just a selfie?
The chain goes in the lower pocket.
Is it the bookshelf?
I mean fuck Christianity but this is kind of the same energy as a conservative posting a mirror selfie and saying “about to trigger the libs”. You do look great though!
I’m more upset about that one shelf that hasn’t been dusted in awhile.
Sorry for my ignorance, but what would upset christians? I'm not christian so I don't really know what it is about.
As a Christian, I am not upset. You look awesome 💕
I’m Christian and this makes me happy you look amazing !!
Mfw I’m a bisexual Christian
Tbh you’re the only person who’s probably upset all the time.
✨slay✨
as a recovering christian I can promise you this will anger the church, i love it!
I am Christian and I'd just like to say GO OFF YOUR MAJESTY
Hi, I'm a Christian. You do you. As long as you don't harm anyone I personally don't care what you do.
As an actual christian I think you look great!
As a catholic, you look absolutely gorgeous, now why men don't wear skirts :/
I'm upset because I'll never look that fabulous
No bible on the bookshelf.
Fucking stylin!
lmaooo
Nice waistcoat, I'm here for the very classy queer vibes!
