A couple of male friends of mine came out in the last month and, well, served as an example of the bravery that I should exude.
It's time for me to come out.
This is literally scarier for me than coming out as conservative.
I...like four Nickelback songs. Like...literally...four songs.
I know this is difficult for some of you, and I sincerely hope you don't think any less of me, but think about it: I am 43, a woman, and...had I gotten married...would probably be a desperate housewife. Given those circumstances, it makes perfect sense that I might actually enjoy precisely four songs from some mildly hot Canadian boys who can carry a tune.
I understand if you cannot reconcile your differences with my sinful desire, but...this is who I am. I feel shame. I hope you will continue to love me for who I am. If this is difficult for you, I leave the door open for you to reach out to me in the future when you can love and accept me for who I really am.
