I wrote this in 2006 for a university sociology course I was taking at the time.
The assignment was to write an autoethnography about the most difficult thing I ever experienced.
Prior to Trump joining politics, coming out as gay in high school in the 90s was the most difficult experience of my life.
I have to say that coming out as a Trump supporter has been far more difficult and I continue to resist enormous oppression for that that far surpasses anything I ever experienced as a result of being gay.
