Is it necessary to advertise "LGBTQ+ friendly"

[Coletergeist]

Sure but most others here I do believe ARE speaking in good faith. OP may have used that point to shield what they really feel but some of us have expounded upon that notion. Don't think I saw anyone say it's wrong to advertise it and those like myself have explained respectfully why we steer clear and it's generally due to experience.
I'd say the same if "lgbt" was swapped with "black" or any other label of that nature frankly

People can have bad experiences; does that make it redundant to have safe spaces though? Not everyone experience is the same. The topic of the thread is "is it necessary" to which the answer is "it can be if one deems it so". But to flat out say "no, it's not" is, imho, a personal opinion and also wrong. If you don't find it necessary, cool, it's not for you. But there are folks in which it is.

Then no, I'm not wrong nor are you right. It's just opinions at the end of the day. No right or wrong answer is really applicable here. All I'm saying once again is understand not everyone is going to care for your safe space as they often in some people's experiences only come with issues.

I also find it funny you say the safespace isn't for me...so wouldn't that by proxy mean that advertisement isn't for me either? Genuine question btw

when did I say it wasn't for you? Genuine question. I said if it's not for you (as in the royal you), then it's not for you (royal you). Not you as in you.
