Which TV Character First Awakened Your Queer Identity?
Happy Pride Month, everyone! In honor of all things LGBTQ+, we want to ask queer women out there a very important question: Which TV character made you realize that, um, you're definitely not straight?
If you're anything like me, maybe you found yourself inches away from the TV screen when Shego from Kim Possible was playing Saturday mornings.
Maybe you had a thing for Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill...which is pretty fitting considering Sophia Bush has since come out as queer.
Maybe you had a super big crush on Moze from Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide.
Or maybe your end-all-be-all was none other than Santana from Glee!
Whichever TV character made you realize you're attracted to women, we want to know! Tell us all about them in the comments below or in this anonymous form, and your response might be featured in a future BuzzFeed Community post.

Renfrew Pride celebrates with a race and a community picnic in downtown Renfrew
Renfrew – Last Saturday's Renfrew Pride Picnic in Low Square was certainly the most colourful and diverse event held so far this year with non-stop singing and dancing throughout the day. The event, sponsored by Renfrew Pride and pflagRenfrew County, attracted visitors from Pembroke, Arnprior, Ottawa and Quebec who enjoyed music, artistic performances and a barbeque lunch. In celebration of Pride month, two events were held and organized by members of the local LGBTQ2S+ community. Renfrew hosted its second annual Colour Run that started from Ma-te-Way Park at 10:30 a.m. with runners, walkers and a couple of cyclists heading out on a 3.5 km trek along the Millennium Trail, Lisgar Avenue and the Algonquin Trail to the finish line on Railway Avenue and Low Square. When the first of 10 booths/display tents opened at 11 a.m. there were several curious visitors and residents who found a spot and enjoyed the beautiful sunny skies along with musical performers. Some were treated to a special reading by Pembroke resident and drag queen Toxxic Waist. The bombastic artist, along with her special friend, Minnie Mouse of Disney fame, read stories to both children and adults and encouraged members of the audience to join them when they sang songs. Among the displays were information booths with literature and pamphlets explaining the importance of the day, handmade jewelry and crafts, and food tents. Volunteers were kept busy handing out free hot dogs and hamburgers to more than 150 people throughout the day. When she wasn't busy entertaining the crowd, Toxxic Waist took a moment to reflect on the symbolism and importance of Pride Month (June) and the rare chance for members of her community to be among those who accept them as they are. 'Events like the Colour Run and this picnic are held not only to celebrate the amazing diversity of our community, but it allows people to come and meet us and get to know us and hopefully educate them on our lives and how we just want to live our lives in a safe, welcoming environment,' she said. 'We want people, especially young people, to understand it's okay to be different and it's okay to be yourself. And, of course, we want to have fun.' Error!
