My love life would have greater potential if I were a gay man..
While word vomiting into a Word document at work today, I get a text from a friend that says, "Your gaydar is flawless." Turns out Zachary Quinto is gay. Gay diddy gay gay gay. I have so many appropriate gifs for this occasion; it pains me that I can't post them all at once.
I've literally been waiting for the perfect opportunity to post this photo from a Versace fashion show. There are so many things happening in this photo, namely how this collection of random men are all colour coordinated, but also all the eyebrow in this photo. I knew Zachary Quinto was gay the minute I took one look at those immaculately groomed eyebrows. Also, he's been getting sexy all over town with Jonathan Groff (another gay man I will never have).
I have realised two things:
1) Apparently I have a thing for eyebrows.
2) All the men I want are gay (except Darren). Seriously though, Chris Colfer, Zachary Quinto, Jonathan Groff, Neil Patrick Harris. I needed to get a sex change yesterday.
On a more serious note, Zachary Quinto's public coming out was spurred on by the suicide of Jamey Rodemeyer, a teenage boy who was literally bullied to death because of his sexuality. I feel like this blog is full of me preaching about the LGBT community, but you know what, as long as people continue to be discriminated according to their sexuality, there will never be enough preaching.
Every once in a while I realise that this little bubble of a life I live in isn't the real world. Not too long ago, someone once asked me, "Would you rather your child be gay or have a disability?" Before I could go off on a long and angry rant, the same person said, "Oh, don't answer that, everyone knows you love the gays." Yes, I do love the gays and you should too. Because the point isn't about loving gays or lesbians or bisexuals or whatever you choose to be, specifically, but loving people. Not supporting equal rights for people of all sexualities means not supporting basic human rights, and that doesn't make any sense to me.
If you don't believe or recognise relationships that aren't heterosexual, fine, I respect that. So in return, respect that other people have different beliefs and lifestyle choices than yourself and understand that religion should never interfere with politics. Understand that while a person's sexuality may inform many parts of their personality, it does not define who they are.
