Profile
Name: Martha Hughes

Martha Hughes was born and raised and still lives in Houston, Texas. Growing up was tough for Martha because she did not have many friends and this forced her to have a rather rough exterior. At the age of seventeen she told her parents that she is a Lesbian and her parents promptly kicked her out of her house.

Martha moved in with her Aunt Becky and Uncle Richard, who she credits as the two people who saved her life. Her aunt and uncle were very open minded and because of this Martha was free to live her life the way she wanted to.

As Martha grew older she became more confident in who she was as a Lesbian woman. She soon became a very vocal supporter of LBGT Rights.

Martha currently lives in Houston, Texas with her life partner of six years, Joan. They have two cats Mister Oscar and Wiley.
