MMT

Today, I was working in a coffee shop when 2 gay men walked in holding hands. As you might expect, heads started turning. Then a young girl at the table next to me asked her mom why 2 men were holding hands. Her mom replied, "Because they love each other." MMT

Lady Gaga Before She Was Gaga

This is for everyone to see that she is not a complete freak! She is an artist who isn't afraid to be different. She goes out to space with so much she does to show that people can be different and that differences should be embraced. They really can be beautiful!

Gay Straight, Black White, Same Struggle, Same Fight

So I'll be honest that I'm not really a huge supporter of gay marriage. I don't like to act like our community deserves something. I do thing marriage is deserved but I don't want to seem like a complainer. I understand that alot of people can't really support marriage between the same sex. BUT I do support it! Today in history class I thought about how the civil rights era and what African Americans went through has so much similar to today. For so many people back then, they couldn't understand what it was like to be black and feel discriminated against. For someone who isn't black, they can't share the experience of what it was truly like to be of that color. Today, I think people have such a hard time understanding how just like youre born with a different skin tone, well homosexuals are born with a different tone, only internal. For so many people it is hard to put yourself in a place where you can understand what it would be like for you to be that person. I think about how someday I may have a partner and how the little things matter. Like how if you are not married to someone you can't visit them in the ER because you are not "immediate family". So someone like Janice Langbehn who was on a cruise with her partner when her partner had an aneurysm and was taken to a hospital in Miami. Who waited for hours for her partner of 20 years who she had taken in foster children with, just to be told her partner passed away. Imagine if this was your reality
