I am a queer/bisexual/pansexual woman. I haven’t chosen a label – I’m only a few years in, so I’m still learning all the big gay ropes. I live with my six-year-old son and my girlfriend. We’re engaged but “fiancee” doesn’t sit right with me – I find it impossible to say without doing a funny voice. So we refer to each other as “nearly wife”. My son also has his excellent dad, who co-parents the absolute socks off him.
Something rewired in my early 30s: I went from blissfully uncomplicated straightness to getting crushes on womxn. A few years on and I’m due to marry one. I’m wildly lucky.
