About LGBTQ People

I have a problem. My problem is with young gay folks and the pride culture. I have started to see an overwhelming attitude shift from young LGBTQ folks be proud of their identity. Yay! That's awesome. But then I've been told numerous times that, due to my religious stance on being gay and acting on "it", I am ashamed of being gay. Um. No. My religious hesitation is more about what I count dear and submitting to a higher standard than what my penis wants to do. There's no shame about it. I'm trying to take this slow because dating is a huge leap for me. So, dear LGBTQ people, calm down about dating and religion. Us LGBTQ Christians are not all certain of how to proceed. Extend us some grace.
