Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertall
"It has to be easier for people with penises. Does this person get you hard? Yes? Done. I used to think boners literally pointed in the direction of the person you're attracted to, like a compass. That would be helpful. Mortifying as fuck, but at least it would clarify things."
"They actually barely touch each other in school, probably because people are prehistoric dickwads about gay stuff. But Simon and Bram text and eyefuck all day long, like they can't even go five minutes without contact. To be totally honest, it's hard not to be jealous. IT's not even just about the true-love-heart-eyes-get-a-room-dudes fairty-tale magic. It's the fact that they went for it. They had the balls to say fuck this, fuck Georgia, fuck all of you homophobic assholes."

Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertall

  • The story is about Leah Burke, a band leader and her struggle to come out as bisexual to her friends during her senior year of high school.
