Do you remember being a closeted teen and feeling afraid of what other people around you would think if they found out you were a lesbian? Sometimes, your family members, classmates or friends said hurtful, homophobic things that made you think twice about "coming out" of the closet.
Well, hopefully you found the courage to come out (or are considering coming out) and proudly embrace being a lesbian.
Either way, the Twitter trend #GrowingUpLesbian will resonate with you, because who can't relate to the experience of having family constantly ask you at reunions, "Where's your boyfriend?" when you just wanted to say ... "well, I'm actually not attracted to boys, so bye!"
