Intersex: a person who is born with reproductive or sexual anatomy that doesn't fit the boxes of “female” or “male.”

Pride & Expectations.

Over the past thirty odd years, there has been a more common general acceptance. That not everyone is straight or heterosexual. Even a small nation like my home country Norway. Has slowly accepted these matters as normal and this year it’s ten years since same-sex marriage was legalized. It’s incredible what time can do, what a society can achieve.  But it hasn’t always been like this, not when you grew up along the bible coast of Norway. Certain things are more acceptable than others. And “coming” out as anything remotely queer. You are asking for more trouble than its worth. Rumours run the mill around here, even if one is not supposed to let rumours cloud one's judgement it still does. For those generations that were not aware that it was something people pursued. Or that it was very much normal? Because of such views, I learned very early to keep such things to myself. It is not something to even talk about in “polite company.“ It could very well, be this generational divide. That at least makes more sense to me. For me as a 90′s kid, my generation was somehow more open to the concept that you didn’t “need“ to fall in love with the opposite sex. Love is love, right? Honestly, I wish I had a better understanding of that when I was twelve-years-old, in 7th grade and was accused by a classmate; “You must be Lesbian because you said she looked good in that sweater.” Was thrown into my face after school and we were waiting for the minibus to drive us home. I got this comment thrown into my face. Because I earlier that day I did actually compliment a girl in my class. That the sweater she wore did, in fact, look good on her. I gave it to be “nice” that was what my twelve-year-old self had in mind. I had no idea what Lesbian even meant at the time, I just remember it hurt being called something that “wasn’t true.” By the time I turned thirteen, I started to with some odd traits. My gaze would often land on a girl, just as much as it did with a boy. I’d shake my head and think “This isn’t possible! It’s not normal, I can’t stare like this.“  While I actively would try and freshen up and apply a bit of mascara and lip gloss after every PE and Swim class at school. I recall many of the girls hinting that I was trying to impress one of the boys? It was a very confusing time for me like most teenage years are supposed to be. Full of hormones and questions of identity and sexuality, in a small place where it simply wasn’t socially accepted. Now, you’re probably wondering, what did change my mind? Believe it or not, it was through a 3d avatar chatting software where I found the very first girl I had a crush on. So, ok maybe I couldn’t stop fighting it anymore. I’d had crushes on boys over the years. And maybe even thirteen-year-old me had tried to impress some of the girls in my class too? Of course, I used to the internet to figure out what the hell was happening to me? Because I didn’t just like girls, I liked boys too. And that made me Bisexual when I came to terms with that. Well, I didn’t have many friends at the time so I did what was expected of me. The outside world had no need to know what my sexuality was. Because it did not define my personality, nor my other hobbies and interests. It simply was and is my sexual and romantic preference. But as I grew older I decided to come out of the closet to my close friends. And I realised that I wasn’t alone. It’s nice and private, I kind of like the sense of privacy. Online communities are kind of different though. What you know of my online presence. I can be open about myself if I feel like it. Or I can focus on a particular hobby. Is not mashed together with the expectations and assumptions I have to show to my neighbours and acquaintances. Sadly there is still a lot of stereotyping going around in small communities. And the very concept of Pride, being Proud of my sexuality? Can I? Am I?  Yes, I’m proud in my own way. Meeting up to a gigantic parade with thousands of strangers. Celebrating their sexuality and identity. Good for them, be proud of the history behind it that today it is possible to do these things. Seek out a community if you don’t have anyone in your inner circle. Learn as much as you can and then just take your time to explore. Don’t rush it, you have time. A whole life of it.  I may not be the most eager Pride Parade goer, lots of people shouting out their pride for all to hear it? And the loud music, not who I am as a person. Some may claim that this attitude makes me less worthy of considering myself apart of the lgbtq+ community? No, I am not less worthy, I am bisexual but I am also a very Norwegian woman. Most you may not see how that is relevant, but being Norwegian is as much my cultural identity. I am proud of my country and its history, we’re far from perfect. I’m completely fine with not shouting to everyone what my sexuality is from the rooftops.  I am still me. Wow, I didn’t expect it would be such an emotional roller coaster to write all this down. I haven’t really posted this experience of mine so publically before. Art by: @sckorches  Do check out their other sexuality potions!
