Our coming out journeys<\/h2>\n

I (Swati) had stumbled through accepting my sexuality most of my adult life. Growing up in India, I had my first girl crush at 14 and had girlfriends on and off, but I didn\u2019t know how to process or reconcile this. I had no real life role models (being gay has been illegal in India till very recently) and nothing on screen either!<\/p>
