“Don’t be afraid of your freedom”

Channel 4 recently launched a “totally different” campaign. It depicts a celebrity surrounded by a small box, double-bent limbs, a hand pushing a claustrophobic space, and a body bursting freely.

Every one of us who participated is a member of the LGBTQ+ community, has a hidden disability, is of color, is a woman, or… or what?

Or really wanted to get it, I decided.

Whether it’s leaving scars on our bodies, having non-normative parents, or navigating a landscape of shifting identities, we’re all outside the framework that society has created for us. And only I will speak.

So I was very lucky to be invited to visit the proprietary lifestyle section of the Pride site. For all of us, this is your chance to connect, share and shout from your personal rainbow, Dua Lipa’s throat command: “Don’t be afraid of your freedom!”

What gives us freedom is the name we give ourselves, our label.

Etiquette became a hot topic when I sat down with the lifestyle team at the subway office.

Jesse is a bisexual person with ADHD and is writing an article today that explores the unexpected benefits of U-Hall’s lesbianism and where all the lesbian bars on the planet went.

Natalie is a woman of color who praises her focus on the hierarchical experience of LGBTQ+ people of color.

Ellen is a bisexual white woman with OCD who focuses on sharing sexual stories. How do you deal with gay nerves for the first time? This is a question that all the curious at some point ask themselves, regardless of their sexual identity.

It is this curiosity that helps us connect with and learn from the tribes of our choice.

My answer was clear to the unavoidable question of how I like to label lesbians, bisexuals or frank but clear. There is no label. I’m just ana Of course, we are not aware that our name is the most important label.

But if you’re wondering, I’m the daughter of a minister, a wealthy family who loved both men and women and wanted to adopt LGBTQ+ parents.

My heart has sunk and my dreams have been shattered, but I never lose hope. I experience the ignorance of others where love does not understand other meanings. And like everyone reading this issue, I want to live in a world that is not only tolerant of difference, but also welcome.

Fifty years have passed since the first official manifestation of gay pride. Nearly 2,000 people participated for visibility, equality and change. Thanks to the researchers who walked ahead of us, there are now about 1.5 million people.

The LGBTQ+ family is truly a family. With big rainbow arms, we are ready to greet you.

Happy Pride 2022! Whatever it is, don’t be afraid of your freedom.

With love Anna x
