Hey I’m an African American lesbian and I was wondering how you first explored your sexuality/personal identity. Sorry if it’s too personal I’m asking because I’m trying to explore mine but due to my conservative parents it’s hard for me to express myself
No need to apologize I don't mind answering,
Tbh I found out that I was attracted to women after reading a fanfic and realized that imagining myself in a world where a woman and I were in love sounded and felt very possible and I loved the idea (until I was faced with heavy internalized homophobia). I had to accept myself and honestly just interacting with other queer people helped me to further understand my queerness. I never really dated anyone or anything but just being a very imaginative girl helped me to express that side of myself more. I hope in some way this gives some perspective/ help. I wish you nothing but the best for you💗💗
