Born that Way

Were you born that way? Check out this lovely site:

"A photo/essay project for gay viewers (male and female) to submit pictures from their childhood (roughly ages 2 to 12), with snapshots that capture them, innocently, showing the beginnings of their innate LGBT selves. It's OUR nature, our TRUTH!"

You might think it's poking fun but since they're voluntarily submitted, I think it's more about accepting who we are — and embracing the little boys and girls we were.

And yes I realize there's a essentialist/constructionist debate to be had here….but let's just enjoy the pictures.  Like our childhood, after all, the pictures were always the best part of "reading."
