Hello, cyber listeners. This is your host, Ben Maku, here with a new podcast. I want a shout out.

It's called Vent Documentaries from Vice UK. It's a series about young people from London telling

you the stories they care about. In the episode you're about to hear, Kalil tells us about his life

growing up with homophobic parents. He had to learn about being gay alone, from making Sims characters,

have gay sex to signing up to online sexting forums.

Khalil tells us the sometimes hilarious, sometimes graphic, and sometimes painful story of what

it's like to come into your queerness on the internet.
