It really took a 1-2 punch for me to really break through the years of being raised with this being kind of a mix of abhorrent and just not even discussed.

the finale, the kiss, it shattered my egg like sugar glass as all the lesbian yearning I never understood flash boiled and i sobbed and sobbed as it all made sense that that was all i ever wanted the only way I'd feel complete. I had to transition, I had to be gay. It was borderline a compulsion.

I've never been happier.
