ah that thread about comp het just . made me really sad . thinking about all the time and experiences /i/ lost out on because of it as well . all the time i spent not fully knowing myself . it sucks .
i’m not straight . by any means . and i didn’t realize until i was like 26 lmao . and it’s obvious looking back now but bc of comp het i was just . i would see a girl i thought was hot but just /not realize/ what it meant or what i was actually feeling .
it took me having two “girl is hot” experiences almost back to back to /finally/ realize and even now !! i am /still/ struck with “okay but am i /really/ not straight ?” moments bc comp het is just . so fucking pervasive . and i hate it .
i’m not a les/////bian either so i don’t mean this thread to take attention away from the day but the whole concept of comp het taking so much time from lg////bt people is . just resonates with me in a really painful and aching way .
anyway i’ll prob delete this thread later idk i don’t like talking about this stuff bc i’m terrified bc of the country i live in and the specific /part/ of it i live in but it’s important and i’m sad so whatever anyway i’m not straight thanks for coming to my t////ed talk
also comp het fucking sucks dick thanks for coming to my te/////d talk
