      It’s wild to think my kindergarten teacher was flamboyant, wasn’t married, I thought he was gay but as a 6 year old I was afraid to talk about it because I knew you could get in trouble for being gay. I don’t know if I really knew what it even meant to be gay yet but I knew people hated it. You couldn’t be an openly gay teacher, and in a lot of the US you probably still can’t be.
