It's completely unbe-fucking-lievable... Haven't we gotten any further than this?? Sometimes I'm really ashamed of being a human being. The way we treat each other... So horrible! No compassion, no undertanding, no respect. And we're supposed to be the superior spicies.
I saw a flick of an Operah episode earlier, called Gay around the world. Many guest, amongst others a prince of India who came out last year. He is now threatened to lose his throne on having dishonored his family and Inidia in whole. A lesbian Jamaican poet who got attacked and raped in her own home because of her sexuality. She fled to the U.S. Some NBA-star who came out four years after he retired from basket ball. He made his choise of coming out while being at a pridefestival in England and saw Sir. Ian McKellen sitting in a pink cadillack=)
They all seemed to be so wonderfully proud of themselves, exactly as it should be. They all faught for human rights, in all its sentances.
I can't believe we let fear and religion come in the way of human rights. There are still countries in the world where homosexuality is punishable by life time in prison or even death. Not gonna let myself get worked up by the death penalty, cause then you'll be reading for several hours.
I just don't understand why we can't accept it? Some people are gay... It's not hurting anybody, it's not some weird contagious disease... It's just feelings. Nothing more nothing less. It's love. Between two consenting people. How is that somebody elses business?
There was this part where a woman spoke about development concerning these issues in different parts of the world, and it turns out that Scandinavia, specifically mentioned Sweden, is one of the most gay-accepting areas in the world and that they should all follow our example. At least that makes me a little a proud! =)
