#LimitlessAfricans: Gaylord, Gay Congolese (Shot in Sweden)
“When I was young you’re with your family, your brother, your sisters. They would say “you will grow up to have a wife” and I always (laugh) said “I would never” and I was very girly (laugh).
I protect my family, you know, I show to be gay is not to be the shy of my family. You must respect. For example, with your cousin you must study good, have a job. When you have that they can forget that you are gay. Because your mom has to be proud of your life.
I didn’t grow up in an African community, I arrived in Europe at 3 years old and I went to school in different parts of France and there were no black people- only me- all the people were white. And after during holiday I can see my family. But not too much.
I want my family to be proud of me. To be proud of my life. Being gay- you don’t want to change in the eyes of your family.
I’m a very difficult person and when I want something or want to prove something, everyone must accept me as I am. I stay very quiet and respect, but if you don’t like I don’t care. I prefer to be alone, if you hate me it’s your problem.”
– Gaylord (he/him)
