Homosexuality

Before this text begins, an important note: homosexuality is not an illness. It is not a defect, not a disorder, not a symptom that needs to be healed — it is a way of loving, as valid, as valuable, as human as any other. Whoever claims otherwise is wrong. Full stop.

Why then a BodySignal text on the topic at all? Because around the themes of love, sexual orientation and identity lies an inner landscape that is painfully unclear for many people. Not because their love is a problem — but because the world into which they were born was often not ready to receive them in their full shape. From this arise tensions, questions, sometimes also physical signals: tightness in the chest, cramping in the pelvis, chronic tension, sleep problems, the diffuse feeling of not quite arriving at oneself.
