hello! have you seen the post floating around abt the national museum of american jewish history in philly? they are apparently looking for queer jewish stories and i was not sure if it applied to you? the post is a bit old but anyway~

Okay, so, the not-so-complicated story of my religious history is: I was raised Jewish for years, but I converted before I reached the age of studying for my bat-mitzvah.  It’s still a really big part of my identity because…like…it just is, you know?  I still have teachers and rabbis to make proud, even though I’ve fallen out of touch with most of them and the others have since died.  So…like I don’t know if that post applies to me either, tbh.
