How I overcame Homophobia Believe it or not, Nigeria(ns) are one of the most homophobic people on the planet, I was not an exception. I was most homophobic; not until I left Nigeria. Working at a fast paced job, where you meet different persons with different personalities, you would come across some weird stuff. You come across gay people, people with tattoos covering every inch of their skin, piercings on every part of their bodies (including tongue and _nipples ![]() I had not encountered any gay person up close and personal until one dude was employed at the store where I work. Being naturally observant, I noticed the boy was different. Being Nigerian, I noticed he is gay and thus, my nigerianness kicked in, I avoided him, I saw him as sub-human and I would cringe at the mere sight of him. I did not see anything wrong in what I was doing. Funny enough, there was also a bisexual lady working at the store at the same time and I was relating well with her ![]() On one occasion, during the normal "down-time" discussions (when work is slow), someone brought up the topic of sexuality, in my characteristic curiosity, I jokingly asked the girl why she's attracted to girls, she said she was led to lesbianism out of the urge to explore, that when she was little, her cousin would playfully start kissing and touching her, and they would trib and she would "get off" and feel happy. I threw the same question at the boy, I asked him why he likes guys, he said he was born that way, that right from when he was little, he had always loved girly things, he had always felt attracted to guys. . It was then it hit me, it was right there it dawned on me. I asked myself why I was hating this boy? Did he do anything to me? Did he commit any crime towards me? no be my prick or yansh he dey use. My hatred and animosity towards this boy was irrelevant, I could hate from now till next year and it wouldn't change anything. From then, I made a conscious decision not to hate on gay people. Highest, if I'm in public and I see a PDA between two guys (which is very common) and I feel disgusted or find it uncomfortable, the least I can do is look the other way or leave that vicinity. It's their business what two grownups decide to do with their genitals. Slowly, I started seeing the dude as a normal person, I started relating with the dude like everyone else in the store. Slowly, I'm unlearning my homophobia. https://yankeexperience./2017/11/21/how-i-overcame-homophobia/ 49 Likes 4 Shares |
