Presenter Luciano Huck's brother, Fernando Grostein, told the Universa do UOL, about a traumatic period he experienced as a teenager. He is homosexual and suffered a lot from bullying at school.
“The schools I studied at were extremely negligent and cowardly. They preached a humanity that they did not practice. They turned a blind eye to bullying and were absent from guiding students. All of this had devastating consequences on my life, adding to the conservative environment in São Paulo where I grew up”, reported Fernando.
“The situation pushed me into the darkest corners of existence, depression, pain and suffering. My adolescence was a big lie, a waste of time. But that passed. It was precisely when I met my boyfriend, Fernando Siqueira, who is 17 years younger, that I managed to completely overcome the homophobia within me. He not only enlightened me with his love and kindness, but with a happy, guilt-free outlook on being gay, typical of his generation,” he said.
