Ex-Fundie Diaries | Religious Gender Norms & Growing Up as a Queer Kid in Christian Fundamentalism @ExFundieDiaries | Uploaded April 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
This video is about growing up as a queer kid in Christian fundamentalism and the religious gender norms I pushed against.
A quick note: You can be queer and not a tomboy, and you can be a tomboy and not queer. For me, these identities are interconnected, and I am just speaking from my own experience. :)
Thanks so much for watching!
