It was a seismic moment for LGBTQ+ cinema at the Oscars, Hollywood's most glitzy, glamorous night of the year. Up until that point, films that celebrated the beauty and complexity of the queer experience had largely been ignored, bar a few notable exceptions.

We're just so f****** divided right now. The working classes, no matter what colour your skin is, are fighting each other and the elites are taking the f****** p***.

Are you a Trans woman? Then don't worry about it, Tim. Besides, I love ballet slippers and I've seen Phantom of the Opera ten times. Not sure if that counts for anything. Best of luck with the awards.

I don't think that I've ever said this in a public forum ... I don't even think I've said it fully to even my friends or my family. But as a 43-year-old woman, I'm very proud of myself for owning my sexuality at this age. I think I'm a very strong person for doing it in somewhat of a spotlight, with people criticizing and judging and making assumptions. I'm really proud to be bisexual.
My parents fell in love with the Islamic Revolution when I was a baby and welcomed life under its strict religious rules. The Ayatollah's face stared down from the walls at home, a daily reminder of what was expected and what was forbidden. This included being gay, but by my teenage years I knew I was different from my peers, and began hiding my sexuality from my parents and the world outside.
