#commingout

I've come to the relization that I am non-binary/possibly trans. I've got a lot of things to think and learn about myself, and I am so happy that my partner is willing to take this journey with me. This shit is scary, but I’ve got some pretty great people in my corner to help me through. While I still discover myself I’m currently okay with she/he/they pronouns while I try to really figure out who I am.

Coming out with the young avengers 

The tears glow white on the cheeks tonight Not a helping hand to be seen. A closet of isolation, and it looks like I'm the Queer The gay is howling like this swirling storm inside Couldn't keep it in; Heaven knows I've tried Don't let them in, don't let them see Be the straight girl you always have to be Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know Well now they know I came out, I came out Can't hold it back anymore I came out, I came out Turn away and slam the door I don't care what they're going to say Let the gay rage on. Society never bothered me anyway It's funny how some love Makes everything seem straight And the fears that once controlled me Can't get to me at all It's time to see what I can do To test the gender and break through No right, no wrong, no norms for me, I'm free! I came out, I came out I am one with the gay and queer I came out, I came out You'll never see me cry Here I stand And here I'll stay Let the queer rage on My love flurries through the girl into her heart My soul is spiraling in rainbow fractals all around And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast I'm never going back, the past is in the past I came out, I came out And I'll rise like the break of dawn I came out, I came out That perfect girl is gone Here I stand In the LGBT Let the queer rage on Society never bothered me anyway!

Since the year 2012 I’ve been thinking about this day, scared of when it will finally be here, scared of the society’s opinions and scared the egotistical vulnerability that we all as humans suffer. This day i face my fears, this day i bare my soul to the world. I take this day to empower myself and empower others. Life has given so much to me and for this I’m thankful. Now I want to help, Guide and inspire others like me, and educate those who aren’t like me. But In order to do this I need to do it honesty and truthfully, and this is why I choose to come out of the darkness and into the spotlight,... I’m Puerto Rican, I’m an artist, I’m a son, I am human ,and I AM HIV+...... Five years it has taken me to sum up the courage to do this, five years of emotional battles, five years of being ashamed and all of that ends today! I’m a proud Gay Man, leader in our LGBTQ community, lover of the Arts, Health and Fitness, with a viral status “UNDETECTABLE”, that today stands tall and strong to bring all of you a message for a brighter future! Let’s stop the stigma, let us not be ashamed any longer, Take matters into your hands, get tested regularly , If you are Negative : * Protect yourself (use condoms and P.R.E.P) If you are Positive: * Take good care of yourself with the help of your doctor(medical treatment ) and maintain a healthy physical condition (balanced diet, exercise and rest) to reach a status of “Undetectable”, remember : undetectable=untransmittable * protect and educate others, Knowledge is Power, and Stigma end with us, toguether we can end HIV! I’m no longer afraid.... Today I’m FREE!!!! #worldaidsday #commingout #livingmythruth #undetectableequalsuntransmittable #imnotashamed #imfree #joshuanaponte

So I was doing school and we all had to fill out a paper.Well little did I know it was all about “Doing IT”if ya know what i mean and well i started to fill it out and i mean it was like easy things UNTILL....Number 11 was “Always take birth control”and the teacher picked me to read it and she asked”(insert name here) are you going to take birth control?” and me being me i said “nope” So she asked why and my reply was “Becuase lesbians cant get pregnant”And her face told me she was PISSED. 

And to those who can’t come out due to family/friends. It’s okay, you can come out when you are safe and in a place where you can be yourself and not feel like you’re in danger. I love you and just know there are always people looking out for you.
