This post from author Will Kostakis is moving, eloquent and makes us incredibly proud. 

He was my first relationship, the confirmation this wasn’t a phase, and that it could be just as wild, messy, lovely, perfect as hetero love. He was significant.

He is significant.

READ IT and then rise in a standing ovation with us. http://pen.gy/1QpXHxY
