    It’s great, isn’t it? It’s true self-care. Not in the “sit on a couch all weekend snacking and drinking” sense that the phrase has seemingly devolved into, but in the true and healthy sense.

      I feel kind of liberated in the sense that I really don’t feel as beholden to conform to the hetero gender norms around dating women. Instead, I just imagine dating the person who I have the most mutual attraction and comfort around. They could be any gender now. That’s self care in the sense that I am relieving myself of the anxieties around that.

      I’m kind of new to looking at myself as part of a queer community. Yet, I feel more and more a profound sense of gratitude for those comrades who have fought so many battles so that everyone can have a place to be themselves.
