I’m actually not all that outspoken about my sexuality. But youth are often confused about their sexuality because of things like this. Every day when I was growing up this is what I saw. One man and one woman fall in love and have sex, get married, sometimes have babies (or it is implied). Over and over and over I see this. The message I got from movies, TV, books, and my peers was that I was defective and broken--lesser. Trying to speak up against the constant stream of ‘one man and one woman’ is difficult; so sometimes you find yourself shouting a little, putting it out there more and more.
Honestly, my sexuality isn’t your problem. What I want is a day when I can be who I am without having to explain what I am; I just want acceptance. I worry that without speaking out, without getting ourselves heard, there will never be acceptance. Keeping a part of yourself in the dark implies shame; I don’t want to be ashamed of who I am.
Consider this: what sexuality has the most voice? Is it possible that millions of people feel the same as you about the constant stream of heterosexuality being ‘shoved’ in our face.
Please do not misunderstand. I am not trying to shame you in any way shape or form.
Whats with any sexuality shoving shit in our faces.. Great you’re gay/asexual/etc… But why is it my business.. Unless we are talking about civil rights. And why can’t I think trannies are weird without being called hateful things. It is weird. Will i give them or anyone respect until they dont deserve it? Of course I will. Why are we trying to force everyone into thinking the same way by shaming?
As an American who is an agender demigirl, I deeply apologize for all the dystopian things my country is doing in regard to lbgtq people. American politics make me lose braincells every time I hear about it.
The LBGTQ community is welcome on my blog. This is a safe space.
Queerest names possible (in a good way), go.
Ignore the bad quality
