Love has no shape

OK, so after reading this post and many other posts that are connected to homophobia in the past, I started thinking that maybe we here as a football community should stop talking and posting funny gifs and start acting! Well, we can still talk and post funny gifs, lol. (:

This community has more than 7300 members and I believe many of the people

I have no idea what to do about the situation, but the idea of uniting as a community to tackle an issue in football that is as prevalent and horrible as hooliganism and racism is just wonderful, OP.

Does anyone (who knows German) know more about Philipp Lahm's anti-AIDS/anti-homophobia charity campaign? I know it exists but I hardly know anything about it or how to contribute to it, which makes me a bad activist and a bad Lahm fangirl at the same time. XD In all seriousness, there are (a few) footballers out there who feel strongly that homophobia is an issue in football that needs to be changed/stopped, and I'd love to see if we can find a way to contribute through them, to show that it's a player issue as well as a fan issue. :D

Well, it just struck me. We're so many people here. 7000, is a lot of people, and we should do something about the things we complain about.

I didn't know about Lahm's charity. That's so cool of him.

Yeah, he actually was cover boy of FRONT, a German gay magazine, in their Jan/Feb 2008 issue. He had an interview discussing it, participating as an ambassador in World AIDS day, talking about educating people on safer sex all over the world, how he would support any gay teammates (but wouldn't forcefully out anyone), stuff like that. And people wonder why he's my favorite footballer? :D
