Door? What door?

There was a weird door in the Oracle.

It was busted wide open.

Would someone who is more coherent and rational and sane tell me?

I don't think there's a good, rational explanation to any of this, Captain, because I'm sure right now I'm looking at a leprechaun eating a hot dog.

Thank you, Karen.

My confusion about my gender and sexuality began my first day of middle school, sixth grade.

The first friend I had made told me she was bisexual and shared with me her sexual experiences with another girl in the school bathroom.

This information confused and shocked me as it was such adult content- content being shared with me.

Later in another class, I was asked to fill out an About Me worksheet that asked my pronouns and a name I preferred.

Which again, confused me 'cause I had never s- heard such content con- concepts until then.

By the seventh grade, I had chose Pen as my preferred name and began binding my chest to appear flatter.

Yeah.

And, you know, family is not a spiritual priority.

No.

Well, I think it speaks volumes for, for your skill as a communicator and, and also your wonderful commitment to family that you kept that going.

I'm gonna hazard a guess, which is I don't think they ever quite got all of you.

Thank you.

To then do what you're doing now, to bring it into the light and almost alchemize some of that evil stuff that went on and take back the power.

I think you're meant to do that.

And again, I am just so proud of you for doing that.
