we don't "choose" to be gay, just like you don't "choose" to be straight!
LGBTQ
I just want to start this out by saying, this is (but should not be) controversial, and Iâm sorry not sorry. Iâll argue about this and fight about it until the day I die. until my last dying breath.
Being gay is NOT a choice. Nobody ever woke up and said âI want to be oppressed. I'm gonna date the same sex nowâ.
Wanting to marry the same sex is not asking for special treatment or flaunting their sexuality. we aren't rubbing it in your faces, we are not trying to make you feel awkward or uneasy, we are just asking for the same acceptance a woman and a man have. just because, its a man and a man or a woman or a woman it doesn't make us any less equal. all we are Wanting is to adopt children as a couple is not asking for special treatment. just like you and your husband would be wanting to adopt a child. us Wanting to find someone to photograph their wedding is not asking for special treatment. its just the same as you and your husband would want to be treated.
all we want is to be treated exactly as a straight person would be is not asking for special treatment. Itâs basic human rights. Itâs what everyone should have the right to. weather or not they are straight, gay, lesbian, transgender, gender-fluid etc.
Treating someone badly or denying them something that youâd gladly provide a straight person with just because theyâre apart of the LGBTQT+ community IS a choice. Your religion is not making you do that, your community is not making you do that, your homophobic parents and upbringing is not making you do that, YOU ARE. in fact doing that. you as a person there is nobody else to blame but yourself.
Being gay is not a belief, itâs a sexual orientation. Just like being straight. You should not treat or view someone differently just because of who they love. Being a bad person and then blaming it on your corrupt idea of faith is a belief, and itâs a really *really* bad belief too. I mean, come on, your pope literally said itâs okay to be gay.
Just Look around you, gay people exist. They always have. even back in the day when it was never spoken about or it was just overlooked because i can assure you there were definitely LGBT people about in the 1940's and even longer ago than that. There always will be. its not hard to Just treat them like PEOPLE. It shouldnât be that hard. not as hard as your making it. Your god said to love thy neighbour didnât he (or she đ±)? who knows... i guess we will never know.
so please, accept the fact that we do not CHOOSE to be gay, lesbian, transgender etc. its something we feel deep inside and as long as we're happy, safe, cared for and not in any danger then i don't get what the issue is.
Just do that. Just grow up, get over yourself, and treat people like their people. and that we are all an equal no matter who we love, what welikew doing. what we like watching. we are all individual people who like and dislike certain things, if we all liked the same thing we would all be boring and not have anything to speak about.
but seriously, We shouldnât still be talking about this. Love is love it doesnt matter who we love as long as we are loved, cared for and looked after and both lovers are happy.
end of!
