We're Human as Well

Sat, 11/30/2013 - 10:13 -- L3ah11

We are criticized for our orientations.
We are called unnecassary names;
We are bullied in school.
We are invisible to man kind, but for what?
For a human liking the same sex?
How is that fair?
We're just as human as Jesus, as the straights that say it is wrong to like the same sex; we are human.
We have feelings just like anyone else, so why sit there and call us "Fags", "queers," "Faggots,".etc?
Is it because you are scared of us having power one day?
Is it because its something new?
We're human as well, we have every right to
like whatever sex we want just like you have
A right to like the opposite sex.
We don't criticize you about your likings.
We don't bully you to the point you commit suicide because you cant handle the pain anymore so, why do it to us?
We're human as well.
We cant help who we like;
We cant change even if we wanted to.
So, why should we be bound from it?
Why should we be ignored?
Why is it wrong?
Give us one good reason....can you do it?
I thought so, you can't because we're human as well.
We're human as well and we are NOT going to change for anyone or anything!!
