One of the most eye opening statements i have ever heard was from one of the wirst tv shows on the planet, where a trans man talked about what it was like growing up in conservative america. Where he was so scared because he thought he was gay. Only to later learn that trans people even exist and that he’s not “just” gay. I’m some average run of the mill hetero, i never had to even think about these things. Boy like girls and that hit for me and i was done and never had to think about it again. I can’t even comprehend how hard it has to be to pretend to not like other boys growing up. Or the bombshell it must be to realize that this already complicated thing got even more complicated.
