This one suffers from anthology syndrome — there are some absolutely stunning entries and some that are just there. I wish some had been cut and others had been longer because they were interesting and beautifully written.
Some editorial oversight needed to be exerted with people comparing their queerness to other communities (like disability) that the writers are not a part of. Slightly infuriating!

As with any collection of many smaller things (short stories, essays, etc.), I liked some more than others. I read it over such a long time due to other reading commitments that I have forgotten some of the earlier essays in the collection, but a few definitely resonated with me much more than others. Overall, worth the read.

A great compilation, with some being incredibly emotionally raw. I like to think that I've learned something by reading this. Thank you all for sharing your stories

Most of the stories people were told were so wonderful and interesting to read about. Some tragic, some uplifting. I read about experiences similar to my own and some completely different. It made me appreciate what I have and be hopeful that even further progress can be made
