The World's Most Popular Independently-Owned Website for Lesbian, Bisexual and Queer Women

Veronica's Team Pick: Born This Way Blog

on February 2, 2011

As we've all recently remembered fondly, a lot of us were huge homosexuals from an early age. Also, we were all adorable. Someone else has also had this brainwave and turned it into a blog thing on the internet! If you happen to be snowed in possibly indefinitely, maybe consider opening up a jar of peanut butter to eat with a spoon while browsing the eight bazillion child photos that indicate their owners later turned out to be total gaymos. Feel free to submit your own, too - it looks like it needs more women to participate!

Thank you intern Veronica. I, too, was extremely gay right out of the gates. Though I am always down for my fellow humans who hopped on the homo train later on.

    just adorable! I’m gonna look through some old photos next time I go home; I know there are some supergay ones of me at a young age…
    
    I was gifted so many Barbies as a kid but I preferred to play Ninja Turtles with my older brother – I know there’s some photos of that.

        i loved my overalls. i would always wear them when i would go help dad “farmer” I pretended i had a pet alligator in the front pocket. I’d show it to the guys at the feed store and the sale barn, and i’d give it pieces of corn and soybean out of dad’s truck.

We are all made of kittens.

I remember pretending to be Aladdin when I was a child, with a vest on and sword, saving the day (and the princess).

I LOVE THIS.

When I was little I made my best friend be the Buttercup to my Wesley so I could go rescue her and be with her forever. So gay.

I remember when I was in maybe 3rd or 4th grade there was some sort of school photo thing going on. The back drop was of some trees and flowers and stuff, and there were props we could hold – either a fishing pole or a bouquet of flowers. I totally took the fishing pole. And I was also wearing a brown sweatshirt that said “Outdoor Life” on it and there was a picture of a duck or something. Greatest picture of me ever.

True story: I used to make out with my My-Sized Barbie. If I had a photo of this, I would most definitely submit it!

This is pretty cute. With some kids, you just know.

I thought about looking for a picture to submit, but then I don’t really have any… I’m a very feminine gayelle.
Then I realized that the handful of girls I saw on there were all of the “I hated dresses,” kind.
But I loved dresses… I love my femininity, and love being a lady woman.
(I also played legos and football so there you go, but) how did I know I was gay? I dunno… and that wonder carries on to this day. People are surprised. Or worse, think I’m pretending
I’m going to look into this

  Well, that’s just fine too. It says on the site it doesn’t matter what you were like as a kid or if you fit a stereotype, you were just born this way

I have to find a picture of my friend and I playing when we were little. We were SO gay. We used to play outside every day, and we would be cats who fell in love and got married, and we would come up with different weird “mating rituals” every day. I moved away just before my eleventh birthday, but given another year in the same neighborhood I’m sure we would have moved into the “innocently making out” phase. I saw her from a distance 7 years later, wearing plaid and looking deliciously butch. Ah, lost opportunities.
