this representation is so important!! i am super feminine and only dated men, and when i started dating my gf everyone was super shocked, which was hard on me. it was the biggest transition of my life being out later in adulthood, but being on the other side now, its so worth it. im so proud of you and so excited for this new chapter!!

Her personality, her vibe, her everything. If she had made a move on me, I totally would’ve dated her. It was very confusing to me at the time. 15 years later and I’m still thinking of her to this day ❤You’re not alone!! Congrats on your wonderful girlfriend :)

You're figuring yourself out - don't be afraid of changing. At your core, you'll always be the same, lovable person that you've always been, but now you're coming into yourself. It's scary AF and the self acceptance is a journey. There's so many thoughts and emotions to go through and it's a part of the coming out journey. I can't imagine what it is like to live your life fully thinking that you're straight, then realize that you aren't straight. That's got to be a lot to process. Sending you lots of love. Glad to have you as a part of the community. You definitely struck gold with Shannon - welcome to Internet Lesbian Royalty lol! I'm very happy for both you and Shannon!

[@ashliechristine928]

“Maybe I’m scared of conversations I’m not apart of” is so … just spot on. I never know how to word it. Which is so funny because I wanted to jump through the screen and help you get your thoughts out because you’re so genuine and so sweet, and I just relate to you and this and a lot of what you said toward the end. It’s a battle for just every day personal life things and letting go of those scares thoughts will release a weight so heavy. But, easier said than done, and all we can do is try !! ❤️‍🩹 SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!! Feel your emotions! You’re human! And so loved 🤍🤍

[@hannahwelch5824]

I recently led a ceremony in a celebration of life/memorial for a friend that passed away. When I finished speaking, I was chatting with a friend & said, “I couldn’t help choking up, the tears just came & my throat closed up, there was nothing I could do about it”; my friend responded by saying, “it is expected- eulogies are not often spoken without tears & cracks in the speakers voice”. You are being vulnerable & sharing your experience in navigating something new & life-changing (even being the same person you’ve always been, it’s still a significant experience that has a beautiful impact on your life)- as well as talking about your relationship with someone you’re obviously very in love with. So, in the words of my friend (basically), it is expected- you’re coming out/“announcing” your romantic relationship, acknowledging & accepting parts of yourself & sharing it with your followers, you’re stepping into authenticity, & you are allowing yourself to blossom. It makes sense that emotions are coming up & it’s difficult to express everything in a way that feels secure. All this to say: I see you & I’m proud of you, & it’s okay to be emotional. 💗 I’ve known that I was bi for quite awhile now & I still discover new things about myself/my sexuality to this day. We have each other- the queer community. We can be emotional & complex, & that’s okay.

Congratulations on coming out, Becca. I'm also a content creator who has had to come out publicly after "figuring out" my sexuality at 32 years old. Very similar experience to you - I convinced myself I was straight but as soon as I met this one girl (my now partner), I was hooked immediately and we've built a beautiful life together. It's such a confusing experience and even though you're surrounded by love, it's such a strange internal battle trying to understand why you were involved with men for so long.

First off i dont know you very well. As a 41 year old male who just came out out june 1st 2023 i understand the nerves you have. I grew up trying to be who everyone else wanted me to be. I tried being the normal guy who loved only girls but i never was in a serious relationship. As a teenager some things happened that looking back on now were experiences that helped me become the person i am today. However i ignored some signs for over 20 years. Finally in 2022 i realized i was attracted to both males and females. I was so scared the first few months after i got honest with myself about it. Over time i realized that if i came out i would lose friends and probably family members as well. I also knew that if i wanted to be able to live my life and love who i wanted to love i had to come out even it meant losing friends and family. Finally on june 1st 2023 i told everyone in a facebook post i was bisexual. Most people were positive like you said they were towards you. Do i still get looks and all whenever i am out in public and wearing my pride clothing or accessories; yes i do but at the end of the day i am confident free and able to be my trueself. I hope you continue to live your life for yourself and love who you want to love. HAPPY PRIDE to you.

First of all, congratulations on coming out! The soft and hard launch was absolutely adorable. It was great to see you being so candid and vulnerable about your feelings (the happiness and the confusion). You are becoming the represtation to others that you needed. That is something to be really proud of. As a lesbian that didn't come out until 28 (while married to a man) and in a small southern town, it can be scary. But you're doing great and you will be ok, I promise. ❤ Those who truly love you will be happy for you and will continue to stand by your side. And remember that you never have to put yourself in a box or label yourself at all. Just be you. Be happy and enjoy life. You will be ok. Welcome to the family! 🌈

I was 27 when I finally figured out I was queer - better late than never

that's crazy but happy for you

28 and realized the same thing…. Its so refreshing

[@catherinechase9517]

@@elizabeth4689 I had been in a 6.5 year relationship with a man, so I didn’t really consider the fact that I was interested in women too, despite realizing now that I absolutely had crushes on women but I was in a monogamous relationship so I never thought much about the meaning of my feelings, I just knew I would get really excited to be with certain friends

[@NeXJ-9]

@@elizabeth4689probably because straightness is seen as the default and until someone has concrete feelings, they have no reason to believe they’re anything but that

30 for me!

[@isabelluh6450]

i totally understand the heaviness after the initial happiness and relief of coming out. i knew i was gay at 12 and didn't come out until 20. i was fine with it and was ready to tell my family. i thought it was gonna feel great but mostly i just felt exposed and like they saw me differently (even though they didn't). it took some months but i got to a place where i was soooo much happier that they knew because in the end it was heavier when i was the only one holding onto it

BE SO PROUD OF YOURSELF! This is not easy. But we are all so excited for you 💜💜💜

Hey Becca, first time I‘ve seen you or any of your videos. I just wanted to write a comment to say that your fear of people treating you differently is very valid and I‘m sorry it brings you so much fear and pain. I hope either the people you are worried about (how they will react) just treat you with the same love and acceptance as they did before or that you get to a point where you feel so confident about being with a woman that possible negative comments don‘t faze you anymore. Wishing you all the best, kudos to you for speaking so vulnerably about your experience, you rock!

[@sara31773]

I think it’s interesting how many more women than men are turning to same sex relationships. Women have finally smartened up and said men suck, we can do this on our own! 😂

[@lincolnsimms2780]

Huh. I always look in you tube for people who enspire being real to themselves and people who being happiness to the world. You have just ticked both my boxes. Life is a journey and at times can be quite scary. Thank you for being brave enought to share this with us.

[@kaileyparts1289]

I LOVE how you’re simping for Shannon omg this is precious

[@Caro-zx2ly]

OBSESSED WITH YOU AND WITH THIS!!!!!!!! Way to snag “the number one lesbian in the world” lmaooo died at that 😂😂😂

[@sarahprorok1998]

I love this for you, whether you were straight or gay, a true girls girl! So glad you found someone special!

[@FellVoice]

Well, I'm happy for your happiness Becca, yours and Shannon's.

[@mybrainismagiccity]

Truth is, you feel naked for a while once you come out. I’m glad you’re not putting yourself in a box - it has taken us a lifetime to figure this out. Sometimes it’s just the one girl, might be more than one girl. It’s okay.

[@mehee271]

Shannon singlehandedly lesbianizing the world for us. I think her ability to turn "straight" girls gay counts as a superpower.

[@Anna-19928]

Ehhh I get the joke but it really trivializes sexuality as a spectrum. Becca did this on her own! ❤

[@tallahoramismo]

​@@Anna-19928 I think straight girls are the only ones who have fluid sexuality. It's possible for them to change if it's done right.

[@SippinTeaaa]

@@Anna-19928 exactly, sexuality is really a spectrum

[@thebatmanwhoposts9600]

That sounds a little gross to me, anyone who can be turned isn't straight to begin with. Also feels like a man bragging about "turning" a lesbian.

[@Anna-19928]

@@thebatmanwhoposts9600 exactly what I was thinking

[@someonesomehow379]

honestly same I didn't realize I was a lesbian until I was ✨mesmerized✨ by a girl.. and there were signs that I hadn't noticed before that I realized were signs until after lol..

[@lattegirl60]

Congratulations 🎉 I think people are more open to the idea of sexuality being fluid nowadays and that is a good thing. That helps people like yourself discover a good partner regardless of gender. I wish you all the best in your relationship. ❤
