I have always been an advocate of talking things through and trying to subvert the stereotype. Whether that's to do with what a woman is "supposed to be", what a lesbian is, or what certain conditions are.
There are so many malicious individuals online, I would call them people - but some go beyond what a human is, some are just so full of hatred that they have been drained of all humanity. The hate that these people are mindlessly throwing on to the internet could do more than they realise. To take homophobia as an example because that's one of the things that riles me the most, and one thing I have been speaking out about a lot today on many social networking sites. Not only do people hide behind religion for their hatred, but justify it by using their god and religious text.
These individual's state that the homosexual life is "wrong" and "chosen", however by using some of their justifications it proves that they are blinded by hate and their lives are grey because of this. Allow me to demonstrate my point with pictures:
However they do not realise that they probably pass more than one gay person on the street daily, as statistics state that 1-in-10 people are gay or have gay tendencies (gay, lesbian or bisexual), and these words of hate could lead to personal harm or worse.
I am not going to lie or hide that certain things have really touched me in my personal life. I let words beat me down several times, but I will not get into this right now. Maybe at some point I will post my story, but right now this is not the time.
My main reason behind this post is just to have a bit of a rant and provide some sort of support if anyone has been affected by such hate.
