I'm a millennial and grew up in the Seattle area. In my very big highschool (graduating class of i think it was almost a thousand people), there were like maybe 4 flamboyantly gay guys, all in drama/choir. And zero trans people.

It wasn't even until nearly the end of my senior year that I even considered the possibility of myself being queer. I think if I had one or two more years in school, maybe to grades 13 and 14, I would have made different friends and learned a lot more about myself, sooner.
