Things I Wish I Knew When I Was in the Closet

Being different is not a handicap, it’s an asset. Nobody, gay/straight/black/white/whatever, should strive to fit into any mold. There is no such thing as “normal” anymore, and anybody telling you otherwise is afraid of change, afraid of the “different,” the “other.” What’s “normal” for me might not be ”normal” for somebody else. And guess what? Gay men and women are more creative, more accepting, and less afraid to fail because we’ve been faced with failure and opposition our entire lives. Once you realize that being different means “unique” and ”wonderful” and ”extraordinary” all wrapped into one, you’ll be able to see that you can accomplish so much more than you ever thought possible.
