Self-image & identity
Howdy Space Cowboy!
Men who like men are gay, right? It’s not quite that simple anymore, because fortunately our society is becoming increasingly open and tolerant. People have the opportunity to find their own sexual identity – which is not always easy. How are you supposed to know how a non-binary person feels if nobody talks to you about it? Who can tell you whether you are bisexual or rather pansexual?
The complexity of self-image and identity
We have made it our mission to raise awareness. Discrimination in everyday life is often not done with malicious intent, but out of pure ignorance. Use our articles as a source of information or inspiration if you don’t yet know exactly who and how you are. Do you really know the meaning of the term ‘cis’? Do you know what the FLINTA* movement is all about and do you celebrate Non-Binary People’s Day? At Tom Rocket’s you will find numerous articles and guides to help you better understand the different facets of self-image and identity.
Understanding terms and concepts
No one is born fully enlightened, and it’s completely normal that you don’t know everything. Luckily, information is completely free for you and will help you to better navigate the LGBTQ+ scene. We inform you about awareness days, the meaning of terms such as ‘ace, aromantic, asexual and agender’ and many other topics in the non-binary, transgender and homosexual world. Our self-image and identity section provides you with a comprehensive overview of these important terms and concepts.
Support in finding your identity
The search for one’s own identity is a challenge for many queer people. Are you really gay, or do you actually have a completely different gender identity? What do words like ‘cis’, ‘trans’ or ‘genderfluid’ mean? Would you like some input, or would you like to find out more about a specific topic? At Tom Rocket’s, we want to give you the opportunity to do just that. Our blog posts offer you support and assistance in exploring and accepting your identity. Find out how other people have found their identity and what challenges they have overcome.

We explain how you can defend yourself against discrimination and strengthen your self-confidence. Our articles show you how to deal with rejection and prejudice, and which strategies can help you to assert yourself in an often hostile environment.
