When I was in high school, I thought LGBTQ+ people were really "weird" and "gross", but in the latter part of my high school years, an openly gay faculty member helped me accept the fact that straight people are no different from LGBTQ+ people. I will be forever grateful to him.

I'm cisgender and straight, but I hate it when I get accused of being gay just because I openly support the rights of LGBTQ+ people despite my NT sister being openly asexual much to the dismay of a paternal uncle who believes asexuality isn't real, that she's making it all up and that she uses her age to get out of wanting a boyfriend.


I'm grateful that I learned about Rob Halford's coming out right around the age I was most primed to be a homophobic needledick. It made me both a lot more willing to consider those attitudes as well as to actively stand-up against homophobic bullying of others.

It also changed my attitude towards how I responded to homophobic bullying of myself, because instead of taking it as an attack on my own masculinity it was much easier to treat it as someone exposing their own insecurities.
