shout to lesbians who realized their sexuality through an experience or person that hurt them. i dont tend see a lot of people talk about this, but as someone whose been through it, it can make it hard to really take pride and comfort in your lesbianism knowing how the way you realized it affected you and your life overall. to anyone else who needs to hear it; what happened to you does not define your lesbianism. itll take time, but eventually you will be able to take comfort in your identity despite everything.
