I walked to the viewpoint and read my book and wrote some stuff so I just thought I'd post it in here...
"why would you illegalize something so beautiful?" I don't know and the more i think about it, the more i realize how much hardship there really is for gay people in society. Before i didn't understand why some people are afraid of being gay and hate it so much but now i understand why. this world is so messed up - what if homosexuality becomes illegal? then where would i be and others like me? thoughts like that are what scare me, make me angry. no one should have the right to decide who i love, who i'm with, but me. it's unfair that a few people have all the control over everyone else. and i know that a lot of this goes on because straight people are scared of gay people. i wish i knew why this is so. they say it's because of the bible or because it's just plain wrong but that's all bullshit. they have no valid reasons. sometimes i think it's because they're afraid of change, afraid of people who are different, but thinking and feeling that way won't get you anywhere because changes are always happening and no two people will ever be the same. everyone is different whether they're gay or not. sometimes i think if they just gave us a chance and took the time to get to know us that things would be different. that they'd think and feel differently, but maybe no, maybe it's just narrow mindedness that can never be changed - and that's scary. hate against gays is bad enough, who knows what could happen next.
