An auto-bio comic by K, that illustrates the narrative of not every experience she’s had being in the LGBT spectrum, but a few that shaped her present openness.
That was beautiful and thank you for sharing these little bits of your life us. So, to both you and A I say this: Stay classy and keep doing what ever it is you two are doing. Because i have no idea what it is but, I like it.
Thank you… that was beautiful and touching and intimate and real. You are brave to share that with strangers, but in sharing it we feel we are no longer strangers, because we know you.
Such beautiful, precious words and so real. I hope one day I’ll be secure enough to find words like these to express what I am feeling and what I have felt. I really needed this today.
thank you for this – as the mother of a child who is currently not entirely sure whether or not the sex indicated on the birth certificate was actually correct, these kinds of things keep me awake at night. I don’t want my baby HURT, you know? But I also don’t want the colors muted, or the joy of life itself dampened, either. So all I can do is suck it up, keep it to myself, and make sure there’s at least ONE PLACE to come home to when the world is full of poopy-headed, color-blind savages.
let’em shine, K. you’re a bright butterfly in a world of dreary gray moths.
This is so gorgeous. Thank you, coming from a straight, cisgender woman, for helping me to open my eyes a little wider. Love and happiness to you both.
I’ll leave aside the part where sharing this was a beautiful and brave thing to do from K because it’s been said multiple times. Instead I want to say this is a real piece of art. From the concept of matching the LGBT flag’s colors with memories, to the execution, the almost poem-like writing…it is amazing. I hope to one day have such an artistic vision of life, K, keep being so awesome.
I think people shouldn’t make such a big deal of being LGBT, ones gender and sexuality is their own business. I think that topic of gender is being blown out of proportions. Parades feel weird. You dont have to tell me that you like to shag people of the same sex. Whats the point of going out on a parade? I don’t make parade around liking pickles.
But thats just how I wish things would work. They dont.
I also wish I could be a pacifist but world doesnt work that way either. I enlisted.
I really believe Im fighting for something good.
I hope you believe so too. Keep on fighting you two.
I wish you both the best.
From a cis-(mostly)straight-white-male, I wish everything you need to be in your lives and a humble thank you for this opening of heart by K. It deeply touched me.
I want to give you all the best, all the solidarity and all the support words can convey. Cheers.
