PART TWO: WHY THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHG WRONG WH BEG GAY
I challenge any homophobe to actually fd any tellectual, scientifilly-supported, jtified reason why society has the right to nmn or persecute those who are do you know if you're gay?
If we're talkg stereotypilly, then all the signs I was gay were there; my supposedly 'mp' behavur, preference for performg over playg sports and my tenncy to gravate towards iendships wh femal. Many of the greatt people on this pla -Bs Chief Executiv, Teachers, Doctors, Surgeons and Sports Stars - jt so happen to be gayYet the are nothg more than stereotyp - the were simply behavurs and ways of walkg and talkg that I had...
Beg mp do not mean that you are gay any more than beg extremely mascule do not mean you are straight, as proment gby players who have recently 'e out' so clearly more I was mocked for beg 'mp' or stgglg to act more mascule, the more embarrassed and upset I would bee about beg labelled 'gay'. I would live fear of and anyone who might have - eher to my face or behd my back - ed the word to scribe word the world uld have ma me hate, spise and tt myself more, and this bullyg and name-llg stilled my thought-procs that there uld be nothg worse than beg 'gay'. I hated the fact that people thought I was 'gay' (whatever the word meant to them) and tried to avoid all thought of sexualy om g to my sexualy is unchangeable, is tegral to the personaly which I was born wh and I do thk is normal wh a diverse, large and geilly varied human if I was to fally tackle the issue of my sexualy - and then fd eedom and happs as a rult - I knew I simply had to tackle the issue head on, and this meant first of all nontg my fear of the word 'gay' once and for all.
HOW TO ACCEPT THAT YOU ARE GAY
So I cid to embark on a ep perd of trospectn and soul-searchg, vtg a great al of time makg clear to myself that homosexualy is perfectly natural and that beg 'gay' is somethg about who you love and want to spend your life a relatnship a 'God' do exist, then surely you would say mt be God who has lovgly and purposefully ma people gay, and so surely homosexualy is part of God's plan?
I ma clear to myself that actually beg gay was nothg to do wh the rejectn and bullyg I had received for 'actg gay' - I'd never publicly said I "liked boys" or anythg of the sort - but that the name-llg was stead about societal stereotyp and ignorant children beg about how I walked and talked. I then shifted my foc to why you shouldn't be ashamed to actually BE homosexual - beg gay no one else any harm whatsoever, is natural, normal and most certaly do not stop you om dog the same thgs as any other person on this pla. Many of the greatt people on this pla -Bs Chief Executiv, Teachers, Doctors, Surgeons and Sports Stars - jt so happen to be gay.
I challenge any homophobe to actually fd any tellectual, scientifilly-supported, jtified reason why society has the right to nmn or persecute those who are gay.
WHAT’S WRONG WH BEG “GAY”? HERE’S WHAT THEY DON’T TELL YOU -- AND ’S REALLY DISTURBG.
Homosexualy is somethg natural and normal, not somethg to be repulsed by or ashamed ofI unrstand that many people our world will not be able to prehend or accept what I am sayg. To say I was gay would be about feelg empowered and openg myself up to relatnships and feelg thentic my everyday life. I started to see the negative power the word 'gay' had over me dimish, and began to feel ready to start thkg about my sexual inty a really open, hont, reflective able to see that homosexualy is somethg natural and normal, not somethg to be repulsed by or ashamed of, has allowed me to realise that those who had been and mocked me for how I walked and talked had no right to be treatg me that way and allowed me to feel much more acceptg of the ia that I uld be gay.
I began to see that I wouldn't be 'nfsg' to beg gay like was some sort of crime, but that to accept I am gay would be about feelg empowered and openg myself up to relatnships and feelg thentic my everyday life.
