This is not a test!

Well Since We're Here!

Welcome to well since we’re here and in todays episode we discuss;
The Ways ,I as a Gay POC may have to navigate the world in,
“This is not a test!”

1. Ways I have to minimize who I am in order to remain respected

• Pretending to be straight or overly masculine
• Overly feminine or a like a caricature of oneself (think Wanda, sheneneh, madea, quite the opposite of Vera because other variety or skits shows like Seinfeld for example).
• Recall hearing the story about family matters
• Heyyyyy bitch, Im not your girlfriend !

It's important to be authentic and true to yourself. Pretending to be someone you're not in order to gain respect can be emotionally taxing. It's better to find a balance between staying true to your identity and earning respect from others who appreciate you for who you are. Embracing diversity and individuality is essential for a more inclusive society.

2. Being uncomfortable situations and they are oblivious

• Barber shops, locker rooms, or men in general
• Having an outer body experience, Being a fly on the wall
• Some extra flamboyant or obviously gay appearing because there are some feminine straight men out here and that kinda coined the metro sexual and the fellas roast him and expect you to laugh not knowing that’s your bro or sis or whatever pronoun they prefer!
