my daughter is so terrified.

i am the daughter of the witches their ancestors couldnt burn.

So many of us are. It shows how badly their hatred failed them in the end. We still endure despite all their efforts.

History is filled with civilizations that have embraced LGTBQA people. We have been kings, queens, warriors, poets and scholars dating back to the dawn of written word. The haters have tried to take our history from us, erasing us as they have women and minorities from western history. We are taking it back. Maybe it would help her (as it did me) to learn more about these figures. It's a reminder that we are not alone. We are not the first. Times change and this too shall pass.

Much love to your daughter from a fellow genderqueer with PTSD.
