It becomes clear when put in that context.

Thanks for posting this.

In a conversation with my daughter, I asked her how does she know she is gay/bi? In return, she asked me how I knew I was straight?

We are what we are, why should any one of us have to hide?

The only difference is you never had to think about it.

Why can't people appreciate diversity? It's boring hanging around only people like me.

(Of course, there is no one else like me.) ;)
