Author's Comments

talked about sexuality in health class today...isn't it upsetting how some people think that being gay means that your something other then human? Gay means two things, homosexual and really happy. so why do we say something is gay when really all we mean is that something is stupid. it's like substituting someone's name or characteristic for the word stupid. it's wrong.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. :hug: As long as you're happy and spending your life the way that YOU want it, and with WHO you want, then nothing else should matter.

:hug: thank you!! that's exactly what everyone should understand...it even says in the Constitution that we have the right to be happy and if someone is happy with another guy or another girl then let it be.

people say guns dont kill people, people kill people. but i dont think that if u stand there and shout "BANG!!!" at someone they're gonna fall down in pain, gushing blood and eventually die.

No problem! :heart: It does, and yet it seems that NO ONE knows that about the Constitution.

:heart:i know!my friend told me that yesterday when we were talking about being gay..(i'm all for gay pride) it's so annoying that some people are so rude...they think they can tell who's gay and who's not. they usually cant...and they still say "that's so gay" it's like it's wrong to love and be loved...it irks me

I'm all for it as well. I mean, I'm not gay, but I am completely for the cause. I hate that too, when people make fun of others and call them gay. You're not making fun of the initial person, you're insulting ANYONE who is gay. It really bugs me too.

i am gay...i hear '...is so gay!' everyday on my school bus...and everytime i wish i could go and slap that person and say something...but to do that would mean coming out...and that would mean my parents finding out which would not be good...so i have to hide in the anger instead...it's hard...i know 3 people who are gay..and like 10 that are all for gay pride...we're all irritated by the people around us

My mom is gay, and I just found this out last February. Her parents actually sent her and the entire family to a PSYCHIATRIST because they thought that there was something MENTALLY WRONG with her. When I found that out, I was just like, "WOW". Clearly you can't do ANYTHING in this world without being judged to an infinite extent...Even by the peopel who are supposed to love and support you.

i know...what's worse is that people think that someone can 'ungay' you...when to do that they'd have to go into everyone one of your cells and find the mutated gene that makes you gay...you can hold back the feelings and desire(i did that at the end of this summer) but you will always be gay...and it's wrong to be judged for something like that.

Yeah, that's exactly what my grandparents tried to do...It's horrible. I mean, no one is allowed to be unique anymore? No on is allowed to love who they truly love? No one is allowed to show their feelings or even their true selves? It's pretty screwed up, but hopefully others will see that there is nothing wrong with it, and sometimes, even BETTER than a hetero-relationship.
