Like a Boy but Not a Boy. Andrea Bennett
isn’t real and you’re broken. And then if you talk to the younger kids, it’s almost like you should be so empowered with your queerness that it defines you. The older generation is still conservative and so restricting, and then Gen Z is mad at millennials for not really doing more to fix things, but then, April feels like, What were we supposed to do?
April does sex work for a living. And she sees a therapist regularly. But she still doesn’t quite know what to call herself. Learning about other people opened her eyes to other options and showed her that variations were okay. But at thirty, April feels like she’s just now learning how to be herself. When she lived with her parents, it was like, “Discover who you are, to be that thing right away, so you can be perfect and get your life on track.” Now her life is enjoying and discovering who she is, seeing who she wants to be, taking it at a pace that works for her and doing what she wants—not doing something for somebody else.
