I found a copy of the essay while gathering old screenshots of responses. I'm still working on a more detailed version of my story for a Guest Blog, but I can post the original essay here if you'd like?Fragment wrote: Tue Feb 11, 2025 4:40 am This sounds like the kind of thing that could make a really great Guest Blog.
I'd especially be interested in seeing more of the details- what your essay entailed and some of the best supportive responses you received.
It would be great if you'd consider it.

I'm so looking forward to reading the guest blog when it comes out! I just looked at your IG, and I can't believe you're legit showing your face, Julia. You are one of the bravest people I've ever seen! Seriously, it's amazing!

I'm back from my break now, so it shouldn't be long before the guest blog is ready.
I firmly believe that authenticity and sincerity are essential for connecting with people, and I'm willing to take risks to do what's right and stand by the truth.
When true sincerity forms within, that sincerity radiates outward, touching the hearts of others in ways we cannot fully comprehend. Such sincerity cannot be taught or forced through manipulation or strategy; it arises naturally from the depths of our being. To reach others, we need not employ tricks or schemes. Instead, we must simply be ourselves, allowing our true nature to shine through; let our words flow freely, unencumbered by ulterior motives.

Re: How I came out to 140,000 people
Julia this is very brave of you to do! I'm publicly out, but not by choice. Basically, I live in a city, and I'm kind of a publicly known pedophile there. I've gotten physical threats of violence several times in public. How did your friends react? Mine don't know that I'm a MAP yet.Julia wrote: Mon Feb 10, 2025 12:05 am I started writing this as part of my intro, but decided the entire story would be better suited for a new topic.
