Sam Smith on the hate they received after coming out: “It was really hard”
Sam Smith has opened up about the hate they received after coming out as non-binary. Back in 2019, the Unholy singer came out as non-binary and genderqueer during an interview with Jameela Jamil. “I’ve always had a little bit of a war going within my body and my mind.
I do think like a woman sometimes, in my head. Sometimes I’ve questioned, ‘Do I want a sex change?’ and it’s something I still think about, like: ‘Do I want to?'” they said. “But I don’t think it is.
When I saw the words’ non-binary’ and ‘genderqueer’, and I read into it, and I heard this person speaking, I was like ‘, Fuck, that’s me.'” Since that fateful day, Smith has remained an open book regarding their gender identity journey.
While appearing on Zane Lowe’s Apple Music show, the beloved talent talked about the struggles they faced after coming out. “My family can communicate with me now in an even better way.
