Re: Ever have an identity that you've since changed or "matured" out of?

I used to be really afraid of turning out gay so I clung to the "straight" label in my very early adolescence. I don't know why I was so homophobic, my family and community weren't really so. I guess it was a culmination of those snide little anti-gay remarks you'd hear from your peers and on TV back in the 90s.

Well, I turned out gay, jokes on me. lol But by high school I was definitely a lot mellowed by the idea, even before I had developed a sexuality. Still kind of funny remembering those young moments of being terrified I was secretly gay and reassure myself with crushes on male classmates.

I clung to being straight too even though I wasn't. I was so good at lying to myself about it. I even convinced myself I didn't like boobs because I could tell I was reacting to them more than I was supposed to but I couldn't possibly like them, of course not, so what I was feeling must have been repulsion.

Then I came out and went really far the other way. I was super into being gay and it was practically all I could talk about when I was with friends I could be open with, like all the stuff I'd suppressed for years just came spilling out. I'd get so embarrassed after I left and realized the way I'd babbled on about it but at the time I just couldn't stop.
