There's also a newer community that might fit the bill if you're a hard polytheist (i.e. believe in the gods as distinct entities) called Polytheism Without Borders.
Thank you for helping but I now believe I'm not welcomed there, I haven't been banned but certain members have made it known to me that they basically find me worthless. Just because I questioned certain aspects of the LGBTQ... community, they claim I'm a poor ally and they are trying to paint me as a bigot. I support the LGBTQ... community, however, after being a part of my school's LGBT organizations for a long time, I do question some of the logic being taught. Such as the idea of using "asexuality" as a label to defend your fear of intimacy (I have a friend who I believe has done this) or some of the logic behind sexual fluidity and having concerns that claiming your sexuality can change overtime is actually hurting the LGBT community in a time like this, especially the much (taboo'ed) bisexual community. It didn't help matters that I said to them I think I might be bisexual or pansexual because I have a crush (minor) on a transwoman I know. Also because I did shoot myself in the foot before that; by talking about possibly doing on love spell on some guy I have a major crush on from another internet site.
That one is a bit complicated and I don't want to explain it but I do feel like it may be one of the few situations in the world where the "love-casting taboo" (which I found out isn't exclusively a Wiccan ideology) may be used for a valid reason. Meaning, it may be a good idea to cast a love spell, charm, enchantment, or at least a spell for more validation.
So again I felt I found an internet forum that closed their mind to me for many reasons.
