I learned what being "gay" was. I've always been a bit effeminate, low crying threshold, I didn't enjoy playing soccer with the boys. That was in first or second grade before even being attracted to anyone. They told me it was bad, gross and that the "gays" look just like me. It was the norm to be homophobic in my country.

So long story short the first bigoted people were my classmate kids, the second was myself.
