From Mariconsito Baby Gay to Full Grown Maricon

Gracias for being here with me. Today’s episode is going tobe about being gay during adolescent years. Throughout my years as a gay person I have had people always ask me if I chose to be gay. I usually laugh and say why would anyone chose a life where they knew they would be treated differently by many. Hated and hurt by many. Why would I choose a life where I would struggle my whole entire life. Wouldn’t you think I would choose to bestraight? I have, when I was an adolescent, when I came out, prayed to God to make me straight so I wouldn’t go through the harshness, but I always knew I was fabulously gay.One of the main reasons I started this podcast was to reachout to the younger generation of the rainbow community to provide some hope. Young children and young adults are being bullied for being different and are choosing to harm themselves. Now, with the state of the world I hope thisdoesn’t get worse. Young people are scared and they shouldn't be.If you’re being bullied online please stay off line. It’snot worth your mental health to look at negative comments towards you.  Remember these trolls are hiding behind acomputer. When I was bullied I had a bully try to harass me but notuntil I stood up to him he left me alone in junior high. Now, not everyone is going to have that same bully or situation but I know for me I knew what I hadto do and it took all my strength to do it. Presently, every day of my life I see that bully and I stand proudly.If you ever have bad thoughts and need help contact the LGBT National Hotline Call 888-843-4564LGBT National Coming Out Support Hotline Call 888-688-5428Trans Lifeline Call 1-877-565-8860 in the United StatesCall 1-877-330-6366 in Canadaandthe Trevor Projecthttps://www.thetrevorproject.org/get-help/And if anything you can contact me.
