“I am the daughter of a gay fatherand raised me in a time when there weren’t many openly gay parents of high school friends. I was the only one. He created me on a doctrine of liberation precisely so that I could receive this information more lightly when I understood the whole scenario. He didn’t tell me he was gay to a 3-year-old, it took him a while to tell me straight up, but he educated me so that this information would get to me when it got to me,” he said. Valentina Banderain an interview with Marie Claire.

I am 30 years old and I see people in their 20s with many more questions than people in their 20s.
