I'M AS GAY AS A DAFFODIL
* i am as gay as a daffodil my dear *
I enrolled for two semters and then stopped when I joed Ju Volunteers Philipp where I was assigned as Area Health Coordator at the Our Lady of Peace Missn Inc., Aeta Rettlement Area, S Gala, Barangay Angway-Satihan, Subic, Zambal. I’m gay. A b of my back story: I was raised a very nservative, fundamentalist (Evangelil) Christian fay and relig muny where, among the joys and trmas of childhood and adolcence and alongsi the ways which I was posively nurtured and ted, I received untls msag that ALL people were heterosexual and that homosexualy (as a sexual orientatn, I gus) was not real but was the ceptn of immoral and atheist scientists.

I also received untls msag that homosexualy (as a set of sexual behavrs, I gus) was shameful, unnatural, crimal, disgtg, dangero, and wrong–across the board regardls of age, nsent, or relatnal ntext—and that people who mted homosexual acts and never stopped or repented of them would be nmned to dive and eternal damnatn. As a youth, I stggled to rencile the ntradictory statements I enuntered: homosexualy wasn’t real, but at the same time homosexualy was a VERY real danger, a danger so real that homosexual people (who weren’t really homosexual at all) served unique social, relig, and legal stigma, taboo, and discrimatn. I quickly began to e the word gay to scribe this aspect of myself and of my experience.
