rahnekatIn the interests of support and full disclosure, I currently identify as queer. I say 'currently' because I believe sexuality and gender identity can change as you age. I say 'queer' because it takes less time to explain than what I truly identify as.
For those who take the time to listen, I'm a gender queer, heteroromantic asexual. I don't identify as male or female. I have no interest in sex. I do find guys more romantically interesting than girls, although I'm not likely to start dating anytime soon. Yes, I'm happy. Yes, my family and some of my friends know how I identify. As to the rest of the world, I'm not openly out. It's not a matter of hiding or fear. I just don't think it's something to discuss since it's such a tiny part of who I am. It's more important to me that people know who I'm related to, who I'm friends with, that I'm a college student and a fangirl and so on.
That's me in a nutshell.
ETA: My state doesn't celebrate Columbus Day so I always forget about it, which is probably a good thing because the idea behind Columbus Day makes me RAEG.
