I don't get how people can be so fucking proud of who they are, and I don't just mean that in terms of sexiality. Like, yes I'm gay, but no matter what I tell myself I'll always be so ashamed that I like girls. Because, wouldn't it just be easier to like boys? It'd be easier to fit in, especially since all the straight girls I meet think I'm into them. I dress fem, and tell myself everyday that I like boys. I've known I was gay for 3 or 4 years, so I honestly thought I'd move on from the initial disappointment. But, it's especially hard when people shove it in your face that being gay is a sin, and when you live with a Christian family it makes matters even worse. I've literally had a priest, in my face, tell me I was a disgrace to god because I was gay, and that I was the devil. And whenever I'm with my girlfriend in public, I can't even bare the thought of holding hands because I'm so fucking scared of the stares and the judgment. And I know I shouldn't live up to other peoples judgment, but that's all I've ever known since I was little.
And again, I know whoever is reading this doesn't give one shit but I've been struggling with this for a while. Like it's totally insane to think that gay marriage was illegal only a few years ago.
But yeah, my thoughts.
