From what I tend to observe, when someone like you is worried about what you'll say exerting sexual pressure, but is coming from the wonderful, thoughtful kind of place that you are, these worries are often displaced. In other words, I'd say it's highly likely that with how you feel about this...

Good question! I wish I had an answer to give you as succinct and simple as your question. The answer is that it depends.

My family is supportive of my life, as long as they get to ignore the queer part. I know they can't handle it so I don't talk about it with them. As for my community of colour, the only one I've ever really been a part of is my mom's church family, and I know they wouldn't be able to handle it either.

While a recent Kinsey survey pointed this out, it's not news to anyone who does any kind of sexuality education that people have a mighty hard time agreeing on what "sex" means. It's very common for someone to figure that what sex means for them, the way they have experienced or classified sex, is...
