No

My family for the most part just saw homosexuality as weird

I had a bunch of male straight friends growing up so I only heard gay slurs around them, but I knew I was a Fag early on so it didn't bother me or stick to me

But my mom honestly always taught us to be accepting of people and to assume there's SCUM in EVERY demographic

So that was beneficial for me

However, older black women are like my kryptonite. I feel like they're just SENDING me to hell every time I'm out with my dude. They just bother me. I think it's partly because most of the women in my life ARE black women

We're not making out in the middle of a theater but you can tell we're fucking.

When did you guys enter into your first real relationship? I'm 24 and I haven't had a real relationship with a guy yet, but at the same time I'm not too pressed about it. I'm more focused on my career right now, I want to be rich tbh, but I'm just intrigued to know how it all panned out for some of you guys?  :ohwow:

At 17. It was nice up until he graduated. Usually all of my relationships lasted a year or so then the last one lasted for 7 years.

I just had my first random hookup experience this year.

Omffff 7 years? Slay sis.

I'm kinda over hookups. They're so unsubstantial, imo. I'm talking about the Jack'd, Grindr, OkCupid mess. Meeting someone haphazardly at the grocery store is different. But even then. It'd be nice to have something real.

Yes. My fam used to bash me daily. Only one who didn't was my mother. I definitely learned to internalize homophobia. I was smart, awkward, feminine, I enjoyed reading & writing and I got lashed often for it. I attempted to adhere to the behaviors of the "standard" Black men within my neighborhood and at school. Being hyper masculine, shunning at femininity, drugs, fights, and sex with girls (lolz).

It really didnt change until I succumbed to my nature a few years after. That in itself was still a journey cause I still disliked certain things about other gay men and these internalizations were the root of it all. I honestly didnt start becoming completely accepting of others and myself until 2-3 years ago. Even still Im still on that journey trying to get those old pieces of myself back. I still have issues speaking in front of other ppl, especially if they look like me because of that environment.
It's crazy how society prevents ppl from reaching their full potential at such a young age. I believe soon you'll be able to gain full clarity of yourself and look at those past mistreatments as the building blocks that helped make you the strong, beautiful human you are today.

BAPHOMET.
