Thank you for sharing. I know hostility toward the queer community still exists and admire your ability to dismiss the hatred as “weird comments.” It takes a steely resolve to develop that kind of resilience.
As an older straight male, I grew up when it was still commonplace to be openly hateful toward your community and it’s taken decades for me to unlearn that hatred I learned as a child, but the effort has been worth it, so I thank you for your effort to educate me, as I still have a lot to learn from your community.
