I’m bi, queer, fluid. I’m married to a man with a child and therefore my sexuality is assumed and erased. It bothered me before, because losing community is one I’ve experienced too many times. I was excluded from the desi community, the nerd community, art community and to be excluded from the queer community was very difficult. Now I know that even though I am not in a queer relationship that doesn’t mean I’m not queer. I claim it when I need and carry the awareness that being part of a hetero family affords me many privileges. I’ve only formally come out to my mom and that went as well as I could have hoped. She was mostly happy that bi meant that there was still a chance I’d marry a man In my forthcoming graphic novel, Jukebox, one of the main characters is bi. In a way, it will be my coming out to my extended family. But I feel that I’ve been sharing this through my art for years. My favorite illustration in this collection is the last one - “all love is beautiful” It is. #loveislove ❤ Happy #nationalcomingoutday https://www.instagram.com/p/Bozv8Vshm7R/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zsbz06wm4gvj -- source link
