Hi, my name is Jennifer Ramirez and I am going to tell you my story about how it was hard for me to come out to people but let's start from the beginning. I was born on June 21, 2005. I was born in the Magic Cusp which is between a Gemini and Cancer but I personally go by a Cancer. My mom didn't know that she was pregnant with me because she had my middle sister (Janeth) first. I was born 10 months after Janeth. There are 6 people in my family who is my mom (Guadalupe), my dad (Isaias), my two sisters (Mayra and Janeth), and my brother (Christ Angel).

In third grade, I didn't think much of my sexuality of course because I was too young and busy focusing on the stuff that was happening in the present. But, my mom realized something different bout me and not my sisters because when I was young I never liked Barbie dolls or anything pink. I have always liked dark stuff and when I was a child I never played with dolls but instead, I played with cars with other kids. The only time I played with dolls was when Janeth (middle sister) didn't have anyone to play with.

5th Grade: I was 10 and my brother was born. I started to question my sexuality because I was in class and there were these people that would come into our classrooms and they would give us health education. I started thinking to myself "who am I" and I started thinking bout it instead of focusing on the present now.

7th Grade: It was my first day in middle school (by the way I went to Stacey) and I thought to myself there are more people and classes here than elementary (Webber). I started to ignore the fact that there was everything happening at once such as people walking around, playing football, doing homework, etc. I had to get used to it and I did. Moving on to the middle of the year of 7th grade I finally figured out my sexuality but I was scared to tell people cuz I've heard stories of other people coming out and some didn't go well and others did.

8th Grade: I came out to one of my friends because I felt bad keeping it in and I'm like at some point I am gonna have to come out to family and friends. I told my friend and she was so sweet about it because she told me that it doesn't matter who I am she will still be my friend. I was like okay so that went well. I was also scared that she would leave because some people don't support the LGBTQ+ community.

9th Grade: It was my first day in High School and I really didn't think much of it except just learn where my classes are. I reunited with my 5th Grade friend and it was fun until Covid hit and we had to quarantine at home. I was around two months in school and I felt like telling my friends about myself but then again I was scared. I waited longer but it didn't work out we ended up having online school for a year.

11th Grade: Depression hit because stuff at home and everything going around with Covid. It was 2021 and I finally decided to tell my mom and her reaction was not what I expected because I thought she would get mad but it was the opposite she was actually so supportive. The only one I haven't told in my family is my dad. I told my friends about my story bout coming out and we decided to go our separate ways and that was the part I was scared of but then I thought at least I got it off my chest. I found new friends and I told them straight away and they were so nice about it. Me and one of my friends became closer and started telling each other stories about ourselves. Now I am telling u guys my story about me coming out and by the way I am Bisexual. Thanks for taking your time reading my story.
