I didn't watch #TippingTheVelvet when it first came out. I watched it a few years later when I was in college. Someone had uploaded it to YouTube, and this was back in the day when YouTube videos had a 10 minute time limit, so anything longer than that had to be seen in 10 minute increments, and after each video you had to search for the next one and hope that the user had both remembered to upload it, number it correctly in the title and that one of the videos hadn't randomly been taken down for copyright violations even though the rest of them had been left up.
What I'm saying is, in retrospect, I think the amount of work I put into watching this show went beyond the "I'm just being a good allyβ’οΈ!" explanation that I gave myself at the time.

Kind of struggling to come to terms that I am queer. And what kind of questions that will bring.
Change is hard, but often necessary if you want to build a life as an out nonbinary person.
At first it will be difficult, and many things won't be the same after you come out.
But, the struggle and danger is worth ending the isolation of the closet.
