A document that gathers LGBTQIA+ identities alongside information on BDSM, consensual non-monogamy, and relationship frameworks is not mixing unrelated topics.
It is responding to a shared underlying need: clear, accessible, stigma-free education about identity, intimacy, and human relational diversity.
Here are the reasons such a document exists and why it matters.
Many people grow up without the vocabulary to describe:
who they are
how they love
what they desire
or what community they belong to
Providing LGBTQIA+ labels in a structured, neutral way helps individuals locate themselves in a broader landscape of identities.
This is not about labeling people, it’s about giving people language so they can navigate their inner world with clarity.
A document like this acts like a map, not a box.
Not because they are “the same,”
but because they share:
consent-based cultures
alternative relational paradigms
the rejection of shame around desire
community-driven education
strong emphasis on boundaries, autonomy, and communication
Historically, queer communities helped formalize many of the ethical structures that BDSM and polyamory rely on today (e.g., “SSC,” “RACK,” negotiation frameworks, chosen family models, etc.).
So grouping them together is contextual, not categorical:
it reflects how these communities often support and educate one another.
Most people never receive:
proper sex education
explanations of consent
discussions of relationship diversity
frameworks for communication
distinctions between kink and harm
or models for healthy non-monogamy
A document like this fills the gap that schools, institutions, and often families fail to address.
It provides a safer, evidence-based introduction rather than letting people learn through misinformation, porn, or trial-and-error.
Identity is not just internal, it shapes:
how we form relationships
how we set boundaries
how we communicate desire
how we navigate community and belonging
LGBTQIA+ identity, BDSM dynamics, and polyamorous structures all invite people to question traditional norms and find what is authentically theirs.
A document that brings these together is essentially saying:
“Here are the tools you may need to better understand yourself and your relationships — free of shame, free of prejudice.”
Without curated resources, people are left with:
stereotypes
moral panic
misinformation
fetishized portrayals
unsafe practices
or incomplete understandings of consent
Including book recommendations and educational links ensures that the information remains:
grounded
nuanced
ethically framed
community-verified
and accessible
This protects people, not exposes them.
Many queer, kinky, or non-monogamous individuals experience:
loneliness
confusion
stigma
lack of vocabulary
fear of judgment
When a document simply defines identities and provides resources, it sends a gentle but powerful message:
“You’re not alone.
There are names for what you feel.
There are communities that understand you.
Here are safe ways to learn more.”
This transforms secrecy into clarity, shame into knowledge.
Ultimately, this type of document is not about sex.
It’s about:
identity
communication
consent
relational presence
psychological safety
emotional literacy
and the freedom to shape a life that feels true
It invites people to understand themselves more deeply, intellectually, emotionally, and relationally.
This is perfectly aligned with the broader ethos of Green Gage’s:
exploring the hidden connections between inner worlds, human experience, and conscious choice.
