I am a lesbian and No it’s not a phase

No I never liked him

No I didn’t “turn” gay

No it’s not because of the school I go to

No it’s not because I want attention

No it’s not because I haven’t met the right guy

No it’s not because I’m experimenting

No it’s not because it’s what the “cool kids” are doing

No it’s not because I want to be different

No it’s not because of my gay friend

Yes it’s because I was born that way

Yes it’s because that’s just who I am
