Harsh times. They were ignorant/intolerant.I listened to a fair bit of bsb back in the day, in secret of course
My mom bought me Millennium and I listened to it in my room with my headphones
But I did not put it with my other cds because I took them with me to my friends house a lot
It's up to us/you/me, as adults, to make up to ourselves, what we did not get - in terms of understanding. That's our job. That's our discipline.

We can analyse it till the cows come home but, essentially, it's our responsibility now to compensate ourselves, genuinely, as responsible adults. We need to do that, over blaming - otherwise we fall into victimhood & lose our power.
Of course, life is not this cut & dry. But if that is not our objective then, we fall into self-harm.
We don't deserve this - the VERY people that can lead others into empowerment over themselves do not need this.
Regards, you...please don't ever take a partner again who doesn't respect you.
Forget the trendy, social nuisance " gay/straight trend"...don't ever put up with that. Life is short - make it your own. Find someone who loves/respects you, or stay sane individual, prosper & eliminate bs toxic nonsense -both are healthy, love
