| I should add that, when I came out, I was not as totalitarian as I've made it sound. I realised that some people may have understandable problems with it it, and I was more than willing to work those issues through with them. For example, my parents had lots of questions and valid concerns. It's been a cyclical process.
The people who got the boot were those who reacted in a closed-minded way by rejecting me outright. |
