I really appreciated this, as someone who's right around the same age (but North American)-- the way you characterize the era we both grew up in really resonated with me, as does the way you describe a certain way of relating to straight people.
"But if you don’t post horny on main, you miss those connections. Let me risk it again," is such a beautiful and concise way of putting something that's central to the way I try and live too, always ardent and reaching and choosing being foolish and vulnerable over the alternative.
Wonderful work as always. "It hadn’t occurred to me to become desired, hadn’t occurred to me at all that I could be, and not be observing" hit me hard.
