Bernenda Marc

I love my family.

I always been there for my family.

If I have to work hard to get them the things that they need, that's me.

But when I came out, it was a different feeling.

where I felt like even though me as Bernenda didn't change, just now me being my true self, a lot of family members didn't like that.

And it felt very weird to me because here I am, you know, I've known these people since I was born, since, you know, they probably see me walk for the first time to, yeah, I don't think that I want to be around this person.

That's... Yeah.

And the weird thing is that, you know, a lot of times people use like religion and things against you.

But you know what I tell them back?

What I usually respond with is like, hey, God knew I was gay before you did.

Yeah.

God knew this before I did.

God knew.

God was like, yes, thank you for coming out.

But it's like, how could you say things that, you know, God's love reduces for you just based off of who you love.

When he created me in his image, he created me this way.

This is me.

And I don't care what you say or you say, but God is my homeboy.

So if you have a problem, you got to have to talk to him.

Yeah, but it's just using that as a reason to dislike a group of people is just not a great excuse anymore.
