Yn y gyntaf o'n cyfres pedair rhan, clywson ni sut brofiad oedd tyfu i fyny fel yr unig berson hoyw yn y pentref. Clywson ni hefyd sut roedd y gymuned lesbiaid a hoyw wedi cefnogi teuluoedd pyllau glo De Cymru, a sut roedd discos a dawnsfeydd cwiar yn cael eu sefydlu mewn trefi a dinasoedd ledled y wlad.
