Every week, we round up the best tweets revolving around the themes we explore on the blog.  Here are the some of the tweets we loved from the past week that inspired us, made us laugh, or made us go a-ha.

I was a youth pastor in Nigeria & a 20 year old praying for God to deliver me from the spirit of homosexuality??‍♂️ Those were dark times in my life & I’m glad to be in a much better place now

So No, you can’t pray the ‘gay’ away & the earlier you accept & love urself, the better! pic.twitter.com/EwCw5xEPxL

I am interrogating my heterophobia and misandry. So, to all the men and cis-het folks, I see you, I hear you, I support you. Also @ me how I can be a (better) ally for men and cis-het folks. ❤️
