Mine was probably when I relapsed towards religion at age 15-16 and joined my mom’s conservative megachurch, naïvely thinking I can convince them to be less bigoted and more “christ-like” as well as accept science

      I love it. Don’t be ashamed, you were telling the world you were open to trying new things and being adventurous. Finding your own style rather than following the mainstream is sexy. I used to be that way and slowly confirmed and now I’m trying to get back to my younger self, where I cared less about what others thought.

      There was this kid my friends referred to as “top hat kid” cuz he wore a top hat and trench coat. Yours seems less cringe than that.
