i wish all of you, could be gay for one year. no, five years. and make it when you went to high school and the end of middle school. then you would realize. not just talking about it, attempting to understand. you would realize. i wish you could see the looks my partner and i get when people realize we are gay, when we are in public. i wish you could go through life finding out what people say behind your backs, after they act all "open arm" "give me a hug" "so great to see you" to your face. i wish you could feel the emotion i go through when i read what people say in comment sections of articles when ever the article is anything about anything gay. i wish you grew up with almost every religion on the planet (meaning you jews, meaning you muslims, meaning you christians, meaning you hindus, meaning you native american indians) thinking gays are wrong and evil and what is horrible with world. thank god for taoist who believe in acceptance of everyone, but when was the last time you even met a tao? then nobody would care what gay people are doing. this topic would not even be talked about on a nine thirty club forum. people would be like, really, this is an issue, i remember the time when i was gay, for those five years, in high school and at the end of middle school.
