I\u2019m Pree<\/strong>, and I\u2019m so excited to share my coming-out (coming in) process, and how I\u2019m\u00a0right where I wanted to be (but didn&#8217;t think would ever be possible). To give you some insight\u00a0into my positionality, I\u2019m a fat, brown, disabled, queer, pansexual, acesexual (demisexual),\u00a0working class artist-educator. And I\u2019m pretty excited to share my narrative because I feel like a\u00a0lot of the LGBTQ+ narratives we hear about, belong to cis, thin, able-bodied, white twinks.\u00a0<\/p><p>I was raised in a traditional, Punjabi household, by immigrant parents who did their best, but\u00a0also caused a lot of harm. I was extremely sheltered and ended up being a late bloomer in all\u00a0the ways that Western society deems significant. I first had internal dialogue about my\u00a0queerness around age 16 or 17, and tried to talk to a brown friend about it &#8211; but they made me\u00a0feel bad, and assured me I was straight. I tried to talk to my then boyfriend about it, and I got the\u00a0same response. I tucked that part of myself away for a long time. It felt prickly and crossed my\u00a0mind every now and then, but I thought for sure I couldn\u2019t be one of \u2018them\u2019.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6b7634e6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6b7634e6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"436\" src=\"https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-03-at-10.21.03-PM-1024x769.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1020\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-03-at-10.21.03-PM-1024x769.png 1024w, https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-03-at-10.21.03-PM-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-03-at-10.21.03-PM-768x577.png 768w, https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-03-at-10.21.03-PM-16x12.png 16w, https:\/\/itgetsbettercanada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screen-Shot-2021-03-03-at-10.21.03-PM.png 1198w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Image courtesy of @stickymangos<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d5ccdb3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d5ccdb3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>In my early twenties, I began having internal dialogue about my gender, and was realizing I may\u00a0be trans.<\/strong> But raised in a homophobic and transphobic family meant I tucked this away, too.
