I'm genderqueer, but growing up in a crappy little Midwest town, not conforming to gender norms meant I was "gay" and I was bullied for being gay. The bigots we're never confused, they are out to get us all.

And so my closest friends were and are the LGBT+ fam, because our reasons and identities may be different, but the prejudices we face are remarkably similar.
