Pan and Proud
I want to talk about sexuality. I grew up in a religious family where the only option was to be a heterosexual man or woman in the church. Being ‘gay’ was a myth.

A few days back I wanted to publish an article in which I express my views regarding the media, but that post in not publishable (maybe someday). In that post, my heterosexual side comes out, describing my "boy" behavior when it comes to girls and the media which portrays men with beards, tall, and well-defined.
