My Awkward Issues With Pride
Is it still Pride month if your own community tends to treat you like an outsider?
Uh, hi. If you’re new here, I’m Ossiana and I’m a pansexual nonbinary individual. I’ve had girlfriends, boyfriends, trans lovers and more. I’m queer, even though I don’t look like it at first glance.
I’m here. I’m queer. I’m happy with who I am.
I’m not really happy about how the LGBTQ community treated me as a whole, though. While this is Pride month, I want to explain why some of us don’t get as gung-ho about it as we are “supposed to.”
