Teddy Edwardes, who runs lesbian club nights through LICK Events, never explicitly came out – but there were some clues for her mum to pick up on. “That led to a lot of internalised shame but I’m glad I got over that, and I’m very proud to be me.” She explained: “I felt like if I came out as lesbian I’d be reaffirming something to transphobes like ‘oh they’re into women, they’re obviously a straight man’ – which is a comment I’ve seen as recently as today.
In this episode, Abi, Lily, Teddy, Chantelle, Angel and Saffron open up about the first time they realised they were lesbian.įor Lily Madigan, coming out as a lesbian followed coming out as trans.
