As if you needed one more reason to love Barb, the actress who plays her just opened up about her journey to self-acceptance…
In a series of emotional tweets, Shannon Purser, aka Barb from “Stranger Things” opened up about coming to terms with her sexuality, and learning to accept and love herself for who she is. In the Tweets she wrote QUOTE, “Getting comfortable with your sexuality is a process. It’s going to be okay. I wish I’d known that sooner”...”Another thing I wish I’d known about sexuality is to take it slow. It can define you as much as you want it to.”
She also spoke about how she had a difficult time coming to terms with her sexuality because of her faith, and related to fans who have struggled with the journey of self-acceptance, writing QUOTE, “Either way, I know what it's like to have anxiety about it. Especially trying to come to terms with it and my faith. It can be really scary”...”But it's gonna be ok. You're going to be ok. No, you're going to be great”...”All that to say, you're not alone. You're in my prayers and, if you're the praying kind, please keep me in yours”, and she signed off her wise words of encouragement with a purple heart emoji.
In addition to opening up about her own sexuality in a kind and thoughtful way, Shannon has previously shown just how empathetic she is when discussing Barb’s journey, explaining QUOTE, “We all at some point in our lives have felt that we weren’t at the top of our social circle, or that maybe we needed our friends more than they needed us, and feeling overlooked. I think a lot more people feel a little bit insecure and a little bit hungry for love and acceptance.”
Okay now more than ever I need Barb to be in season 2 of Stranger things. But how about you guys? Let me know what you think of Shannon’s candid tweets in the comments below! Thanks for tuning in, I’m your host Jackie Iadonisi and I’ll see you next time!
