Online messaging or texting for crisis or emotional support.
We encourage and welcome all youth to chat in, no matter what your background, religion, race, ability, sexual orientation, gender identity, lifestyle or culture. We are always working towards being a LGBTQ+ affirming and welcoming space by constantly learning and unlearning harmful normalized ideas of gender and sexuality.

Autostraddle
https://www.autostraddle.com
Autostraddle’s girl-on-girl culture is rooted in basic social values and ideals – we want women to feel good about themselves, we want equality and visibility for all marginalized groups and ultimately, we’d like to change the world. We seek to be a fresh, energizing voice for lesbian, bisexual and queer women, one that takes the reader seriously and encourages intelligent discourse, one that entertains with funny, uncensored and brutally honest conversation and content.
