Je vois plein de gens sur langblr qui cherchent des chaines youtubes françaises. Je regarde malheureusement quasiment rien en français sur youtube...Est-ce-que, par hasard, quelqu'un aurait un post avec des recommandations qui ne datent pas de 2010 (Cyprien/Norman...) ?
can you provide any more. uh. vocabularies gay en français? (tried to ask in french, but couldn't make heads or tails of how to structure questions haha)
you don't know how big is my smile is right now
1. the basics of gender, sexuality and romantic labels
tldr: its the same as in english but with a french accent. really, once you know how to say "sexual", "romantic" and "gender", you just add the prefix of your choice and voilà. to make it even easier, those words are VERY close to their english counterparts:
sexual = sexuel.le -> homosexuel.le, bisexuel.le...
romantic = romantique -> aromantique, panromantique...
gender = genre -> transgenre, bigenre...
but in the end, still like in english, we often shorten these words to their prefix alone: "je suis bi", "il est aro"...
and if you wonder about labels which don't follow this structure, i suggest you look it up for yourself, but there's still a 98% chance the term is The Same With a French Accent, exemples:
gay = gay (i shit you not)
lesbian = lesbienne
sapphic = sapphique
achillean = achilléen
non binary = non binaire
c'est vraiment aussi simple que ça :)
2. how to fuck this binary shit
if you're familiar with french, you probably know it's a gendered language, and maybe wonder how you can speak about people who don't wish to be gendered as masc or fem. the answer is inclusive writing (écriture inclusive), which i actually already showed you above, see:
fem form: bisexuelle
masc form: bisexuel
inclusive form: bisexuel.le
works the same for gendered nouns:
fem form: musicienne
masc form: musicien
inclusive form: musicien.ne
as you can see, in most cases, you can obtain the inclusive form of a word by combining their masc and fem form and a "separator" . i chose to use a simple period, but a hyphen or median point ("·" <- this thing) and probably more* can also be used - edit after seeing comments : take note that using a dot can sometimes fuck up screen readers and also be read as a website url!
in other cases (especially for words ending in -eux/-euse or -teur/-trice), inclusive form can be obtained by smashing the fem and masc form all together:
fem form: actrice
masc form: acteur
inclusive form: acteurice
*however, i need you to keep in mind
i am not a french teacher, just trying my best to explain a pretty complex mess. @ french speakers, if you see any mistake or anything i missed, please speak up.
inclusive writing is still being heavily debated, so it has no official guidelines, tbh even i freestyle it whenever i'm too lazy to look up how i should write something. is "lea" the correct inclusive form for "le/la"? fuck if i know but i sure will use it because who even knows.
and ofc inclusive writing is not only useful for non binary people, but also a tool for feminism that allows to get past the "masculine wins" rule (= when writing plurals, if a single item/person in the group is masc, the entire group must be gendered as such)!
3. mmh pronpuns
again, if you know french, you know we have no equivalent to "they" as even the plural forms for "she" and "he" are gendered. so there goes your only option if you're uninterested in either of those : neopronouns, my beloveds.
the most common one (and the one you should use when unsure of a person's gender or paired with inclusive writing to fuck that "masculine wins" shit) : iel, iels for plural. some other french neopronouns i saw include ael, ul, ol, ille, xel... but feel free to make your own up, this is what neopronouns are about. btw les francophones je suis curieux.se, si vous utilisez d'autres pronoms que elle/il/iel, dites moi quoi !
4. important!
faggot = pédé (there are SO MANY synonyms but i'll just give you the most common)
dyke = gouine (alternatively : goudou)
tranny = travelot (trav for short)
