cute interview with JD
“It was really hard to come out of the closet in Ohio as a fifteen-year-old lesbian” she writes on the LeTigre website. “My parents and I fought a lot, and I was constantly getting in trouble for being different (ie: shaving my head, dying my hair). I was extremely fortunate to have some other gay and lesbian friends … we quickly found the queer friendly meeting spots for teens. Whenever there were problems with straight kids harassing us we had a whole gang of kids to back us up.”
