Tell me a secret.
Rant.
I am so tired of people being ignorant to the topic of homosexuality. So here is my big rant about it. I was in Jack in the Box the other day with my brother here in Maricopa, not bothering anyone and minding my own business just trying to spend some time with him, and these two guys came in and they were standing in line deciding what thay wanted to get, and they kept looking over at me. I didn't mention anything about it or give it a second thought, but then when they sat down while they were waiting for their food, i could hear them talking, and they were looking at me saying "That's a girl over there, look..." and then they both looked at me, and then they looked away, and then one of them said "No way! She has no hair!". I still didnt say anything about it to my brother, i just looked at him and said "You know what, I think i'm finished eating now, can we get out of here?" and so we did. I hope i never have to see those guys again. Sure i wanted to say something to them, but i know it wouldnt have changed anything. it just made me mad that there are actually people in this world who are so rude, and so immature that they have nothing better to do with their time than to talk about someone else and their appearance. so what if someone looks different than all the other people around them? GET OVER IT. its not a big deal. its called personality, and lifestyle.

My Bff.
She is the greatest person alive. We're going to live forever. We are totally different, yet the exact same. We say the same things at the same time. We read each other's minds. We talk about everything there is to talk about. We call each other, no matter what time it is. Because we're cool like that. If you mess with her, I'll have to shank a ho, and nobody wants that.
Homosexuality.
A homosexual is a person who prefers members of the same sex over members of the opposite sex. Homosexuality is not contagious, its not a disease, and its definitely not perversion. It's just a difference in preference. Just because they aren't attracted to the opposite sex, doesn't mean they have to be put down, and discriminated against.
Homosexuality gets blown out of proportion, because it's something different. It's not "normal". Being homosexual isn't something that you can change. You are born with the homosexual genes. People get upset, or uncomfortable when they see two homosexuals holding hands, whether they're male or female, but homosexuals don't get upset or uncomfortable when they see two heterosexuals holding hands. Because love is love, and it should never be judged. People should not judge homosexuals on their lifestyle when they don't even know them.
Rejection of homosexuality is a large problem in today's society. It causes many members of the homosexual community problems, because many feel that they can never be themselves around the people they love because no one really understands them, and therefore will not accept the person for who they are. It causes people to live false lives, thus taking away the thrill of the true, happy life they could be living. Rejection leads to stress, anxiety problems, and even psychological problems. There is no reason people should be rejected just because of their sexual orientation.
Homosexuality is a misunderstood concept. There should be more awareness and acceptance of homosexuals, because they are human beings, and that needs to be more understood. Don't let them live a false life, let them enjoy it, and I bet you will enjoy yours more as well.
