Sexual Identity Expression and

Avery was walking fast in the hallway, embarrassed to see the judging faces of her schoolmates, then she suddenly bumped into a guy who was wearing a feminine outfit

“Oh my god! I am so sorry.” Avery said to the guy, scared

“It’s alright! I’m Gavin by the way ” He introduced while smiling at Avery who was looking down and tugging the hem of her dress.

How I wish I had the same confidence as Gavin. If only I could wear a more masculine outfit instead of a feminine one without thinking of other people’s opinions.

"This might be a sensitive subject but…How do you walk so effortlessly despite their disgusting gazes?” Avery questioned.

“Oh is this about my choice of clothing? They don’t really bother me that much. It’s so not me at all if I just let people dictate how I’m supposed to be in front of them. Why’d you ask?” Gavin replied, wondering if the girl was experiencing the same issue

“

It’s just that I really don’t find my current outfit comfortable. If only I could just wear what I really want ” Avery admitted her conflicting thoughts to the curious boy

We should all keep in mind, that we all are equally made. No matter what sex, no matter what gender.

If we just work hand in hand, we'll definitely create a world, that will be each one's home forever.

“Self-expression knows no bounds. If not now, it’ll come out eventually. But are you really going to torture yourself by waiting?” Gavin reached out his hand, inviting Avery to take it and come to terms with her true self.

In the end, it was up to her.
