Write an essay on yourself in terms of gender identity, sexual orientation, and so on.
As a straight male, my gender identity and sexual orientation link with the expectations
of society of what it means to be male and who I am attracted to. I identify as a male and feel
comfortable expressing my masculinity through my appearance and decisions. My gender
identity is a significant element of who I am and changes how I interact with the world around
me. Similarly, my sexual orientation as a straight male indicates that I am attracted to girls. This
component of my identity defines my romantic and sexual relationships and influences how I
express myself within those circumstances.
