I ban you because everyone at my school seems so homophobic. Like, when two people (especially boys) hug/ touch/ say genuinely nice things to eachother, even if it's just friendly (which it usually is), people just start yelling "THAT'S GAY!" Same thing happened in one of my classes. We were supposed to be analyizing articles from the news and discuss them with a partner. I read an article about trans women going to women's colleges, and when I casually brought up what LGBT stands for, my partner just starts laughing his head off like it's some sort of joke. Even though I'm (mostly) straight, I just felt hurt by this. My best friend is bi and another one of my friends from camp is gay. Heck, my aunt? She's married to a woman. People shouldn't treat love like it's a joke. It's ignorant and soooo offensive. Can I get an amen?
