Long one but well worth the read guys.
It’s the final day of pride months 2020, and man have i learned a lot about myself. I thought I’d share why I’m PROUD to be me. I have been battling depression and more recently I’ve been dealing with anorexia and body dysmorphia. I often get told “your already so thin” or “you look great!” No one talks about how reinforcing those comments can be to someone who focuses solely on that. I was told I was overweight, as a young woman, at barely 20 pounds more than I weigh now. I’ve become more focused on my health lately. I’ve gained some healthy weight and I am so proud of my progress.
I have always considered myself to be “open” to love. When people began to ask my personal sexuality, as this community is surrounded by the LGBTQ+, I didn’t know how to answer because I didn’t know much. Now that I’ve spent some time educating myself, I am pansexual. Gender is something that is taught to us at a young age, infants do not automatically gravitate to gender, they gravitate to people. I am attracted to the person, not the gender they identify.
Leave me some comments guys. I wanna hear what your proud of.
