I remember always asking for Barbies and horses for every birthday and Christmas when I was younger, and I always received them without hesitation from my parents; as far as I could tell, anyway.
I was obsessed with Shania Twain and Madonna and then was also introduced to Kylie Minogue when I first heard Can’t Get You Out Of My Head, on the radio in 2001.
I’d like to think I’d set up my family for coming out, but after beginning secondary school with these “odd” feelings towards men and then an experience at the age of 16, the thought of actually telling them was still pretty terrifying.
