Every once in a while once of those Gay groups/pages on Facebook like "Wipeout Homophobia on Facebook" or "The Trevor Project" or, I don't know, "Gay News", would post a video like this one. And....I just don't know what to say, you know? I feel like I have so much to say to all those people out there that don't understand, but I don't know how to put it so that it would be understandable and convincing.
I wrote this "note" on Facebook some time ago, about how you shouldnn't be homophobic and stuff and many people said it was a great one and all. Yet it talked mostly about WHY we shoudln't be homophobic or racist. I feel like I have mor eto say, against bullying and child abuse. I just feel like it will reach nobody but my friends who aren't really that close-minded...:/
So...I don't know why I wrote all of this, I just wanted to share the vid. But I'd really like to help.
Thanks Rizz. It makes me feel like things will get better if we continue to put these types of messages forward. Its not just about gays and lesbians, but everyone who is bullied. Lets see a future without hate and fear, that is my hope.
I know, I feel the same. Most times words fail me, as I just cannot begin to think what to say. I think there's a lot of anger inside of me, because of this.
When I was younger I used to beat myself up for being gay. To this day, it really hurts - knowing the damage I did to myself, torturing myself. Today, when I hear about someone going through rough times, because he/she is gay, I feel overwhelmed with emotions and I just want to reach out and help. I feel so bad inside, tears come to my eyes uncontrollably. It's like it has become an instinct. An instinct that reminds me just how human beings can be.
