Kerlin, thank you for writing about being bi in a glbtq+ world that continues to dismiss us as being confused or just wanting everyone.

Maybe you've given me courage to write about how it is with my sexual orientation: thoroughly bi going WAY back since I have at 83 a lot of way behind me.

Pride values all the colors of the rainbow. Some gay and lesbian people are still conditional about what colors might be thought of as confused or in denial.

Thank you for writing about this orientation. Another closet door opening!

Being yourself is the best thing to do, and knowing you belong. I hope that moment arrives soon. Because you do belong, Kerlin, and you shouldn't have to wait to be told that, by anyone. ❤️

Hello sibling! I came out as bi 30 something years ago and still suffer from the not-queer-enoughs. I worked on the streets of Chicago with queer and/or homeless youth and done many workshops on LGBTQ+ competency and queerness. Now I have a special commitment to my queer, kinky, and non-monogamous peeps in my spiritual direction and coaching practice and I still often feel not queer enough.

Thank you for writing about this. Love and blessings.
