Summary Note I marked the day in my adolescent diary with a single blank page. The mantle of 'queer migrant' compelled me to keep going - to go further. I never 'came out' to my parents, I felt I owed them no explanation. I was thirty-eight and figured it was time to come out to her. Even now, I sometimes think that I don't know my own desire. Compiled by celebrated author and journalist Benjamin Law, 'Growing Up Queer in Australia' assembles voices from across the spectrum of LGBTIQA+ identity. Spanning diverse places, eras, genders, ethnicities and experiences, these are the stories of growing up queer in Australia.
