Hayley Kiyoko

Like, if she were to see herself reflected on screen or her experience reflected on screen, you know, she'd be like, oh, people support gay people.

Like, maybe I don't have to be so hard on myself and hard on the people that I love.

Maybe I will be okay.

It's a defense mechanism, right?

Like, when you're scared, when you're fearful—

you aren't kind to yourself and to others.

And it just is like a rebel effect.

I think she did the right thing.

That's the energy.

There's there is a lot to unpack with that person.

Yeah.

But it's also like, how can you have expectations that she's going to stand up for someone else when she can't even stand up for herself?

Like, if the bar is so low for herself, why would she do that for other people?

And that's a lot of this world.

Just like...

We send you hugs.

And go see Girls Like Girls with a bunch of strangers and know that there's a huge community out there that feel the way you feel and have your back.

And I think you should be proud of what you did.

Like, I think she really chose herself in this moment.

And I think that that's important to value yourself and hold the standard high.
