I grew up in a very Catholic, southern household, and both my parents came from rural areas. I have no ill feelings towards Christianity or towards rural areas, and wouldn't change anything about myself or where I grew up. I feel like my orientation and the experiences I've had because of it have shaped/strengthened my ability to empathize with others. Is it okay to write about this in my secondaries? My fears are:
1. My reader is homophobic or at least doesn't think it's a big deal, and I get points off.
2. My reader is very Christian, and feels personally affronted or hurt (again, I really, really have nothings against Christianity/religion, I just want to be considerate!)
3. My reader has something against bisexual people specifically, like I can't just commit.
Would it be better if I just steered clear of this entirely? I don't want this to be the thing that sets me back if I choose to use it.
Thank you for any/all feedback! I appreciate it very much.
