00:00The first sexual encounter I had was with a musician from the Capitol Orchestra and I was so excited and
00:08carried away, but this romantic adventure that I decided to come out to my parents and say, okay.
00:19Mom, I like boys, so as an artist, she understood.
00:24She said, okay, but wait dad, this is going to be a little harder.
00:30And especially with my siblings, my older brother and sister who weren't as loving as I could have hoped during
00:36the difficult times when I learned that there was another virus that had invaded my body called HIV.
00:44And that was at the age of 28 with a life expectancy of four or five years and by setting,
00:50I setting foot in the house of diversity.
00:55I hope to be able to find in a chosen family context, the brotherhood, the love of a brotherhood that
01:04I did not have during my childhood and adolescence.
01:07Thank you. Thank you.
01:11A year ago, at one point, I found myself in a park and then unfortunately I had a nasty encounter
01:16with three people with iron bars.
01:19They threw me to the ground. They beat me up. It was in the dark.
01:24It was short but violent, very violent.
01:27And they hit my legs.
01:31So for me, it was still difficult because as a dancer, my legs are a bit like my work tool,
01:35leg work tool.
01:38And I came back in front of the students without showing anything.
01:42And that was the strength of character that I had from this difficult job that I had to tell myself
01:46that I have to be strong.
01:47Once again, I have to be strong.
01:56And in a way, I take my revenge on stage by showing that they will never crush us.
02:04Even with iron bars.
02:06Yes.
