"There’s a new looseness that’s making our steps lighter. It feels that we’re trending towards bravery, the urge to show affection growing to be stronger than the fear of repercussions." God this touched me. I know you are talking about LGBTQ issues, but also, it's so damn universal, this desire to just be ourselves.

Aw thanks Rick. We all just want to be seen as who we are! It’s sometimes so hard.

Hi Becky….. I hope that one day it becomes reality for you guys to give each other a big kiss in public…. In my country ( the Netherlands ) it is somewhat accepted…..

Thank you for sharing your story…… love will always surround you

Aw thank you so much Jeroen! Grateful that there are pockets in this world where it is a lot more acceptable to do that :)
