Making Sense of My Pride

You never stop coming out in life. The world is built under heteronormative standards where you will always be primarily depicted as straight. If you come out to your circle, you’ll find yourself coming out to every new person you meet. Every time you do, it becomes a little bit easier, but you never forget your first time. So, support those in the process.
