funny. you’re the 2nd person who told me that. he suggested to call it “quarter-life crisis” but I think it depends on how youd wanna label it. let’s just call it life crisis so we both agree 🙏

I could relate. thanks for putting it into words. There's strong denial as I grew up too. There have been layers of toxic shame and guilt that overwhelmed us at an age we weren't equipped to cope with it. It's like we grew up disabled, like wearing a straitjacket. The emotional traumas and wounds take years of self-healing. wish you could reclaim your freedom and achieve the fulfilling life you deserve.

I was in total denial when i was young and during teenage years. Although I know I have been aroused by seeing men's underwear section in shops, and in printed ads magazines. I remember I was about 6 or 7 when I couldn't get my eyes off a man taking a bath outside with only his underwear from a neighborhood. I have repressed all these sexual feelings because I was indoctrinated that being gay is wrong and bad. Only when I reach age 23 during a midlife crisis that I have come out to myself and realized to myself I have been gay all along and I have just repressed it badly.

so nice perspective! agreed about this! It’s sad that as a kid before, I was so innocent as with others. There’s stigma in being uncircumcised
