Homophobia

[lightmagicks]

Homophobia is more then being anti gay (man-man) or lesbian (woman-woman) relationships. One of the least recognized forms of homophobia is prejudice against Bisexuals, and this form is even alive and well in the "gay" community. Transgender people also seem to get a lot of shit

I think you're over-emphasizing some of these issues. I don't believe there is such a need for people to identify their sexual orientations. Unless they want to begin every sentence with "Since I'm gay/bi/a lesbian..." or whatever. What I find most often in the gay community is that everyone is queer. I've chosen that word because the community includes gay people of both genders, transgndered people, bisexuals and also supporting straight people (who you have almost disregarded as being part of the community), but each and everyone of them is considered queer by the outside world.

There are some other things I could elaborate on here, but I'm sure that you don't really wanna hear what I have to say... I hear what you're saying with these two issues and I recognize a lot of the same issues, just not all of them...

yeah ok. maybe i over emphasise a little but i was pretty mad. as for identifying their orientations its not like i want everyone to wear a badge or something or even start every sentance with hey im bi. but seriously i am really afraid of hitting on girls becasue well if they arent open to that stuff it could go bad really quick. That sphiel was all just my opinion and u have your own. everyones going to have a different opinion about the matter. but you know what it all doesnt matter so fuck it. I need to learn to let things go. yeah so whatever its really not that big of a deal in the long run and so i shouldnt have gotten so offended.

I think you might have gone on senior may, because I haven't seen you, but I want to invite you to my graduation party. It's on June 11th from 3-7 at the Senior Cabin (casual attire). So, I hope you can make it...
