Sex is an activity. It’s something we can choose to do or not do — and the passion, the love, the intimacy, those are all different qualities we can ascribe to it based on how it happens and who it’s with. Sex doesn’t have any inherent morality or intimacy, it’s solely about those involved.

This week, Matt kicks off our Conversation series on coming out with his own story.

You are not where you're from, and you are not your environment.
