dhq. There's a lot of like gay internet discussion about compulsory heterosexuality comp head I think that there's a version of this that affects gay trans people that I don't know when you're early in transition you kind of feel this intense like gender conformist pressure I liked the idea of like dating straight men because this is like validating and like I don't know I was just found that exciting that a straight man would be into me for a while I did anyway.

I finally got me out of it was just being so like life ruining Lee and love with my best friend that I was like well.

That'll do it.

Maybe we get a couple like just we can just record for three minutes of just Natalie like nodding her head.
