Shihab S Joi @shihabsjoi.bsky.social · 13/11/2024I grew up in Bangladesh as a Muslim, came to UK to attend an all boys private school, I won't pretend I was always this way, or that I didn't make homophobic jokes to fit in with the rich white kids. But then, age 15, I heard Hide Away by Erasure, and got it. A hard-on for Bowie sorted the rest x 1210928
Shihab S Joi @shihabsjoi.bsky.social · 13/11/2024The closest I came to experimenting (do ppl still say that) was when girlfriend suggested a threesome (only offer I've ever had) and said he looked like Rob Lowe (who I had a crush on, along with Matt Dillon and Mickey Rourke). He looked more like Prince fucking Andrew so that was a no 6210

Ángela Tenerife @angecahill.bsky.social · 13/11/2024I'm glad there wasn't social media when I was a kid. We all said stupid stuff. Really horrified though, how people today don't think about the consequences of spouting on social media, or just on video, which can then be uploaded, especially if they're high profile. Coote being an obvious example 010
Paul @therealpaz.bsky.social · 13/11/2024That's the first time I've heard that song. Powerful. Similar vibes to this, which i absolutely love. youtu.be/QcugrXZRtJQ?...youtu.beThe Communards - Disenchanted HD Remaster (Official Video)YouTube video by Jimmy Somerville OFFICIAL 120
Paul @therealpaz.bsky.social · 13/11/2024All kids say shit to fit in and I'm guessing it was much harder for you. It's what we do as adults that define us! 140
Mo T 🌹 @mot62.bsky.social · 13/11/2024I grew up in Iran as a Muslim and came to Europe very young. I see a lot of similarities in our journey. 110
Ricolas @ricolas.bsky.social · 13/11/2024We all said daft shit when we were kids. Trying to figure out who we were. For those of us old enough, mobile phones and social media hasn't archived it all. 030
