Let's talk apology

I honestly believe that I'm entitled to a real IRL apology from all the people in Wellington that made assumptions about my gender identity and sexuality. 4 years of my life wasted thanks to all this negativity.

Because my brother accused me of trying to kill him.

Because Jane was upset at me being upset when she was crippled.

Because Michelle wasn't upfront enough about what she wanted from me.

Because people thought they saw my bulge grow.

Because people retrospectively judged my actions when I came out. Particularly those that presumed I had mental health conditions that weren't diagnosed. That's the worst stigma of all. - Particularly if my paranoid delusions are true and they're trying to force me to be a star, yet also want me to be a man rather than a trannie. Honest, real, apologies thanks. 🏳️‍⚧️

To quip: adversity is good for creativity, but this was like being blacklisted in the 1950's. Ironic, given the name of one of the theatre groups. I doubt that Red Scare has ever experienced that level of exclusion or stigma. 🤣
