Watchtower free since 1977...and so damn glad... Gay and out and proud since 1980...and so damn glad... I wasted ages 14 to 21 in the WT slavery society. Spent most of that time looking like mr. theocratic on the outside and wanting to die on the inside. Fucked up my head and fucked up my life in so many ways that I'm still realizing. There were some good things I got from it, but most of it was way bad. Life hasn't all been a bed of roses since I left, but it's been real and honest and it's been MY life, not the watchtower's. I hope the things I post will maybe help somebody else out of the trap, somewhere sometime. Any questions, just ask.
