I came out on Facebook because I give a damn
I remember the first moment I felt attracted to a girl. I was 11 and it was changing time after a rather hard session of P.E. (Sports to anyone unfamiliar with the term!).
It was an age when girls feel very self-conscious, and I was mortified to be in the situation because I’d never really been in a position where I’d be in a changing room of girls and with showers afterwards. As I was getting undressed I turned around and saw my classmate completely stark naked. Even now the image sticks in my head. This classmate in particular was a gymnast, petite with a perfect body.
I was struck by two things. 1. I hated my own body and I never ever wanted to be like that in front of her. 2. She was beautiful. I had never seen a naked woman before (in the flesh anyway) and I was rather taken by the beauty of a girl’s figure.
I decided that day I would grow up to be a lesbian.
