Straight up, I’m gay…

So here I am, 21 years old, a long-term boyfriend, and a beautiful little baby boy. The whole future ahead of me. After my son was born, I found myself becoming inexplicably mad at my boyfriend, and even getting so angry as to verbally abuse him. I wondered, what is he doing so wrong? Why do I find myself being utterly repulsed by him? Anyways, I thought it was just because I hated the person he was, but not so. He is a wonderful man.

Now, I will start from another angle, growing up, I have always been attracted to women, as well as men. I never thought anything of it, I even had conversations with myself along the lines of, “just because you want to be gay, it doesn’t mean that you are.” Well, not too long ago, I laid my eyes on the most beautiful woman-no- person, that I have ever seen. And I just got to thinking, why? There have been so many Why?’s throughout my life that have added up and now, I am finally allowing myself to be what I have always wanted to be, or more accurately, always have been. I am a lesbian, and I am unbelievably relieved to be able to say that to myself, and all you strangers…That sounds rude, but I haven’t really grown enough courage to tell anyone that I am gay, not my sister, not my mother, not even the girl I have feelings for, and especially not my boyfriend…So this is the first of hopefully many blogs I write about my progression from straight, to lesbian…So far, so good….I think you all know how awesome it is to be in acceptance with yourself, it makes dealing with everyone else seem like child’s play..I’ll let you know how it goes xo

Ms Straight;

It is a process: good for you for recognizing that self acceptance is the first and most crucial step in that road called coming out.

and while Ontario is a big province… Pride Week is coming up in Toronto :-)
