Back in March, Sam came out as identifying as non-binary, explaining how they fluctuate between identifying with the male and female gender. A person who identifies as non-binary doesn’t define themselves as either male or female and often prefers they/them pronouns. In a candid interview with British GQ, Sam recently detailed their experience with sexuality, explaining how ‘not fitting in’ can make them feel ‘really depressed and sad.’ The singer also recalled ‘violent and scary’ experiences within the gay community shortly after moving to London, admitting they were forced to have therapy to come to terms with the ‘traumatic’ encounters.
