    I’m not surprised. When society moves towards a more welcoming environment for LGBTQ+ people, fewer LGBTQ+people feel the need to hide their identity. We always existed, we’re just becoming more visible now.

      And, as less stigma exists surrounding the queer experience, more people are open to exploring that aspect of themselves without feeling pressured into it. The option to look and think about ones own identity is a lot more available, and it means people who may have gone their entire lives without knowing what was off now have the opportunity to discover their own truth.
