RE: The Queer Contest 146: First Impression – How Much Does It Really Matter?

Welcome to the community!!

I meet people with curiosity rather than conclusions. I interact with people while still holding space for the possibility that I could be wrong — or wonderfully surprised

especially in a world where many of us wear masks to protect ourselves

Ufff, this is such a great point. And sometimes it's hard to take off your masks for fear of being rejected by others.
