WHAT IF BEG GAY WAS THE NORM? ‘LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED?’ FILM DEPICTS WORLD WHERE BEG STRAIGHT IS ‘ABNORMAL’ [VIDEO]

Image a world where beg gay was the norm -- where children are born and raised a society that sends the msage that beg straight is disgtg and a to WgSpan Pictur, wrer and director Kim Roc Shields brgs the trigug thought to life the short film “Love is All You Need?, ” which follows Ashley Curtis, a baby girl born to two mothers, who disvers her oppose-sex attractn as a young girl and nstantly hears om everyone -- her parents, relig lears and school officials -- that she nnot love a boy. That majory asi, when we discs self-intifyg gay men, lbians, asexuals, pansexuals, two-spir, nonbary and transgenr folks, ’s jt roughly 3 percent of the populatn. Heterosexuals make up a greater percentage of the untry than whe people do on the Supreme ask everyday Amerins to gus at jt the gay and lbian populatn, and Gallup shows they nsistently overtimate.

Every remr of my different path ma me yearn for a fettable broar, blanr mastream sir thenticy foreign cuise or subtled foreign streamg shows, but mands sad homogenizatn of the forever foreign nature of queerns. Beg normal is a lie people tell themselv to ver up the realy that they are merely how few number we are, ’s a lerally unpopular thg to say but I am gay. For those of you wonrg why I chose to wre normal as ‘norm’-al, is bee this article seeks to addrs whether homosexualy, a generally persistg sexual attractn towards members of the same sex as one’s own, nforms to a norm.

AS A GAY MAN, I’LL NEVER BE NORMAL

Homosexualy, when seen as a variatn of sexual orientatn, is fact somethg we would ll normal; that is to say, is not an aberratn nature or an illns to be treated.

The bias and tolerance faced by those intifyg as anythg outsi the male-female/man-woman bary impli a societal rejectn of homosexualy certa tim and plac. It was only when the gay movement started gag tractn that beme a subject for nsiratn polil and medil circl, which until then had seen as a viance om the acceptable heterosexual system, and th somethg that threatened the existg orr. (Photo Cred: Pixabay) Th, while homosexualy as a soc-sexual phenomenon and sexual inti that weren’t clud the male-female bary were experienced by the ancients Greece, Rome, Mopotamia and Babylon, morn science only acknowledged when beme tertwed wh s polil facets (Michel Fouult is the thory on the medilizatn of sexualy).

However, homosexualy is seen as viant some societi, and not others, highlightg the social nstctn (social factors of a particular settg creatg certa expectatns and ias around what is acceptable and how thgs ought to be) of what is nsired to be ‘norm’-al and ab-‘norm’-al a society. There is evince of Mayas and Toltecs acceptg homosexualy as normal certa rualistic paci (even if were partial, most s, and tolerant more private spher). Concln As both the acceptance and rejectn of homosexualy crease societi all over the world, heterosexualy still predomat the normative sphere (why else would homosexuals have to ‘e out, ’ while heterosexualy be prumed).

One theory allows the equatn of homosexualy to be siar to left-handns, a naturally occurrg phenomenon that should not be shunned, but stead accepted as a ‘normal variatn’ the sexual make-up of a human beg. my social science class me and my group have cid to take a look at how the world would have changed if heterosexualy were taboo and beg gay were the norm. I am tryg to dig up historil people that were drastilly effected by their sexualy to such a gree that if this "gay beg the norm" thg occurred would have altered history.

EDIT: please try and avoid stereotyp like sayg the world would be more flamboyant and vered glter; that is an element of current gay culture but this alternate realy uld jt as easily be apart of heterosexual culture. This prompt i am viewg gay as a slidg sle (y i unrstand do not work this way but i am addg this alteratn to highlight chang history that may have occurred if the historil people we know today were opprs the way gays were that time- would Washgton have ma different choic life if he were worried about beg killed bee of his sexualy). Also, if the scenar would work out - however strange the blogy of the hypothetil people mt be - we would likely have exactly the same problems we had so far, only wh the rol of heterosexuals and homosexuals swched.

But as far as i have experience my gay iends are jt regular jo that like guys, some like jewel rgs or some gay stuff but not more than what some other straight guys like watch, the amount of divas seem as much as the amount of macho straights. An alternate realy everybody gas +50 gay and so the hetero people are now +25 gay and the super heteros are now +25 hetero, they are still hetero but no longer super hetero.

BEG “GAY” THE NORM, “STRAIGHT” MORY SHORT FILM

Then aga, nothg big, i remember once i went to a gay party of a iend, all the guys were askg like "what is to be straight" - "du, the same as you but i like boobs". S the same argument as "what if their were a guy kid who was the next Este but he never reached his potential bee he lived a world that hated him for beg gay".

We nnot look at how history would have been different if gays were always accepted society but we n observe how would be different if historil people were opprsed the way gays were then. This enlighteng short film portrays a world which beg gay is accepted and expected, and beg straight leads to bullyg and prejudice, and subsequent prsn and hopelsns for those of heterosexual orientatn.

Y is fairly low budget and the actg is not "perfect" however if you are straight like me and ALLOW yourself to go there, to image this world exists and put yourself the sho of if you were gay and the outst and the lonels and the pa that uld occur. In this thought provokg short film we see a world where beg gay is the norm society and beg heterosexual will subject you to prejudice, bigotry and hate.
