These pictures are the best. End of story.
A few years back (and still to this day), a blog called "Born This Way" collected photos from LGBT people showing their younger gay selves. We recently asked members of the BuzzFeed Community to share with us the gayest picture they took as a kid. Here's a truly, honestly amazing collection of pictures that will make your day.
