The WMSCOG taught not to preach to gay people.

When I would go preaching with a partner (there was always a partner, like in the Handmaid’s Tale) sometimes we would see two women holding hands.

Eww, my preaching partner would say, steering us away. Sodom and Gomorrah.

I’d keep silent. My first relationship was with a girl. I’m one of them, I would think to myself, feeling like a traitor.
