@naomibabybu: Are we Hannah Montana? I have not been able to stop thinking about how many women are living double lives to protect their families. I’m honoured to share the story of someone who reached out to me. It’s an example of how we can find ourselves later in life, but at the cost of living openly. A lot of of us have had strict parents, and have grown up with a scarcity immigrant mindset, but there are definitely levels to how extreme it can go. Wishing nothing but love, acceptance and freedom for all the daughters out there who feel trapped. #storytime #fypシ #fyp #fypviralシ
I swear there is nothing that destroys families more than religion and politics…

As a gay Nigerian woman who grew up in a religiously conservative home, I definitely have disappointed my parents in choosing to live openly and freely—particularly my mom. I chose my happiness & peace. I hope this woman will come to live in her truth fully

someone I went to high school with had to hide her marriage and children from her grandparents because she married a black man. They went to their grave not knowing.

How can she love people who’ve essentially imprisoned her her entire life and don’t love the person she actually is. They don’t deserve that love from her.

Adults need to learn how to disappoint their parents. You can’t be living like this forever, especially when it’s not what you want.

Yep I’m Indian and my family is hindu. This is more common than you would think. I have a very big family and two of my cousins are gay. They’ve never married nor have they told anyone else besides me that they are gay. It’s very sad and hard to see

I love that her writing condemns no one and preserves everyone humanity in this. It allows us to really step into her shoes and feelings and the complexities of all this. It really makes you think about the cross people have to bear, for lack of a better phrase.

As a closeted queer person, this hurts so much, because I'm sorta seeing this as my future unfortunately, either that or remain single and by myself for the rest of my life

It is not our job to protect our parents from the pain of their wrongdoings. How else will they learn? I hope her life gets easier and that she feels the exctasy of releasing burdens that do not belong to us.
