Don’t come out unless you want to. Don’t come out for anyone else’s sake. Don’t come out because you think society expects you to.
Come out for yourself.
Come out to yourself.
Shout, sing it.
Softly stutter.
Correct those who say they knew before you did.
That’s not how sexuality works, it’s yours to define.”

“Demisexual?â€� Her face, that beautiful face, remains unchanged. Doesn’t shift to
incredulity or boredom. Just understanding. Beautiful understanding and acceptance. “I
know. I won’t press you into anything you don’t want. I love you, Lili. All of you and all
of how you think and live and breathe. Demisexual just means loving differently, and
there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s your everything I love. Not bits and pieces.�

“My everything?�

She nuzzles her forehead beneath my chin. “Yes, your everything. Silly siren.”

“What we did. What we fought for. Our history. Who we are. They won't teach it in schools. They don't want us to have a history. They don't see us. They don't know we are another country, with invisible borders, that we are people. You have to make them see. You have to remember it. And to share it. Please. Time passes, and people forget. Don't let them.”
― Abdi Nazemian, Like a Love Story

“If I'm not wearing makeup or something androgynous, they see me as a boy. If I do dress more feminine or androgynous, they see a boy but a boy wearing eyeshadow or nail polish. It's easier for people to see what's on the outside than what's on the inside....You know how most people hear a song and only remember the thumping piano melody? I'm more than just that one instrument or one key. I exist in between notes, with backing vocals and lush harmonies.”

“Is your fragile masculinity too vulnerable for my fabulousness?”

“It’s all right, Byron. You’re more poet than you are pirate.â€� I walk up to him then.

He scrambles to fix his spectacles. “But didn’t you always dream of adventure?�

He stammers a bit. “I mean. I studied literature.”

“Girls will run for queen, and boys will run for king-there's definitely no accounting for people who might not identify as either. And the hardest for me to ignore, same-sex couples aren't allowed to attend together. We can dance with each other once they get there, maybe, if no chaperones care enough to stop them, but they can't officially go as dates. And just in case they hadn't made their prejudice clear enough if your gender identity doesn't explicitly align with the one you were assigned at birth you can't come dressed the way you might want. Girls wear dresses and the boys's wear tuxes. And that's the end of it. The whole thing royally sucks in my opinion.”
