Members of San Francisco Bay Area Gay Fathers in the San Francisco Freedom Day Parade, 1980.

In San Francisco, San Francisco Bay Area Gay Fathers became a familiar fixture at the annual pride marches. From its inception, SFBAGF had attracted particular attention when it marched in the annual parades. Jack Latham described the way the “newspapers singled us out” and crowds “exploded” in cheers at the initial 1975 group. Latham reasoned that this was because gay fathers marching was “novel and startling.” Throughout the late 1970s, SFBAGF marched in the annual parades, with an increasing number of fathers. In 1979, SFBAGF members who marched in the parade began wearing “gay fathers” T-shirts and carrying banners emblazoned with the same logo. This increased the group’s visibility and membership. From 1982 to 1984, SFBAGF won “most inspirational float” in the parade.

Synonyms are weird because if you invite someone to your cottage in the forest that just sounds nice and cozy, but if I invite you to my cabin in the woods you’re going to die.

It’s called connotations.

Try this one on for size:

“Forgive me, Father, I have sinned”

“Sorry, Daddy, I’ve been naughty”

“Your art isn’t valued by the number of notes you get” okay but. If you spent 6 hours baking a cake for a party, but no one at the party eats your cake, it’s still disappointing.

This articulates something about the different between value and validation that I didn’t previously register on a conscious level.

Throwback to when I made this for a high school project and my teacher was upset at me using Beyoncé to celebrate the King.

First day of life up until 6th grade

Jumped all the way to Freshman year of High School

Then I cut my hair Junior year, why did I do that

Slowly it started growing back and then….

I finally felt comfortable to express myself (the picture on the left was my debut)

At this point in my transition I am 6 months into HRT

A year on HRT

Over a year and a half on hormones. My transition hasn’t been the clearest path but I am so happy that I am on it.

Its been a while since I’ve done an update so here it goes

At this point I am 3 years into my Hormone Replacement Therapy. I’m thriving.

These pictures were taken days apart and I am 3 and a half years into my medical transition (The picture on the right was also posted by Instagram on all their major social media handles attached with an interview I did with them for International Women’s Month)

During this time I was 4 years into HRT. Clearly living for it.

I am currently 4 and a half years into HRT, 5 years into socially transitioning, 6 years into when i first came out to my community around me and I’m loving life more than I ever thought I would.
