That's my whole point though.
I just can't imagine caring about this very much. Sure, when I was an angsty teen, but as an adult "what people think" about me is just so far down the list of things I care about.
Maybe because you come from a place of privilege where you didn't have to hide who you really are due to a vast amount of society hating you for it and just want a little bit of courtesy from the people around them instead of endless hatred?
Maybe. Or maybe I just don't care about how people refer to me, shocking though that may seem.
Okay, tell me about how you overcame massive societal hatred and disapproval to show the world who you are at the risk of your own life.
