I was also fortunate that there are so many positive openly gay LGBTQ celebrities who show that you can be gay and amazing at the same time!

The main thing that helped me overcome all the anxieties I had about my ʂɛҳualiƚy was to educate myself about it via online resources, forums, articles, and gay dating sites. It was a long journey that began with confronting thoughts I had going on in my head like “Being gay is wrong”, “I don’t want to dress up in women’s clothes so surely I can’t be gay!”, “What will all my friends think?”, “What will my parents think?!”…

I was in my twenties when I was finally able to accept who I was and feel proud of it.

Because of this, my coming out experience came later on in my life compared to other gay boys my age.
