Escaping The Closet, Overcoming My Shame | PGS Pride Talk

In 2013 Mrs Morgan was approached by the then-Year 12 Will Wallace. He had the idea for a Pride Society at PGS and wanted Mrs Morgan to help him get things off the ground. Since Will sowed those early seeds, hundreds, if not thousands, of PGS pupils have attended Pride talks on a range of subjects from gender and sexuality to race, religion and neuro-diversity.

Last week, Will came back to the school to address the society he helped create. He gave a frank and personal talk about his sometimes difficult relationship with his own sexuality, the impact of casual homophobia and the importance of love. As RuPaul says: “If you don’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love someone else?”
