This is how i will start this, Im 17, an A,B high school student, and a lesbian. I've been made fun of, gotten things thrown at me and recently been given a black eye.

I just want to hear what has happened to others. Share.


1 rule though: if you are anti-gay, dont use stupid examples of why homosexuals deserve this treatment because I know both sides of this argument and will shoot down your examples.

I have a theory that there are only three kinds of homophobes: The religious ones, those who are just squicked out, and those who follow the latest fad.

The religious homophobes seem to think that a dusty, old book is a valid reason to condemn other people, and even hurt them. Despite their gods being all-loving and omnipotent, they seem to hate homosexuals, and yet not possess the power to do anything about them. Funny that. In any case, these are probably the most dangerous, as they not only hate homosexuals, but are capable of rationalizing their condemnation.

The people who are just squicked out are generally straight people. A common example is the man who won't tolerate gay men, but gladly jerks off to a video of two girls making out. Such hypocrisy isn't truly homophobia. Most likely, they don't really mind the fact that men might have sex with each other, but every time they think about it, they can't help but imagine the same happening to themselves, which squicks them out. These aren't very dangerous, as most seem to consider homosexuals human beings, at least, and aren't necessarily actively speaking out against homosexuals.

Finally, homophobia happens to be the latest fad. These are probably the same kinds of people who buy their clothes according to what celebrities wear. Looking back through human history, there has always been something for the majority to discriminate against. You wanna be in the club, you gotta hate them gays. Of course, sometimes it's ok for girls to experiment, but only because the guys think it's hot. Actually being gay is still uncool. These aren't on par with religious homophobes, but they're still dangerous, as they might have a bit of a superiority complex, with the whole "everyone does it so it's ok" thing.

At least, that's my theory.

Shoot this down.

Does anyone deserve to be mistreated?
Why do Homos think they are the only people on earth that are mistreated?
What about fat, skinny and ugly people that are mistreated?
Do you only care about yourself?

black eye? from a girl or a guy? tell us the story!

Go fuck yerself, wowsa.

This is kinda funny.

First of all, I'd never wish for anyone to be mistreated. No one.

That said, I'll quote again:

When did you start including homosexuals there?

I love it...she's selfish because she doesn't think it's right to be bullied.

You are such an apologist for bullies and haters, WoW.

I was standing in a line at a grocery store and this little kid said "You are a fat slob" lol
I can't pinch an inch of fat on my body.
Should this kid be called a Fatphobe? Is it a fad? Is it religion's fault? Should the parents be charged with a hate crime?

When will Homos be charged with a hate crime for spreading AIDS?
As long as AIDS is killing innocent people, Homos will be uncool.

a new AIDS virus has been discovered in New York City.
February 12, 2005 — A frightening, never-before-seen “superstrain” of the AIDS virus – unimaginably aggressive and resistant to nearly all treatments – has been found in New York City, alarmed health officials announced yesterday.

A gay, 40-something city man recently diagnosed with the new virulent strain is believed to be the first known case in the world.

The most striking characteristic of the strain is that full-blown AIDS sets in with lightning speed after HIV infection – as quick as two to three months, in contrast to the nine- to 10-year lag that is normally the case when a victim is untreated.

“We’ve not seen a case like this before,” city Health Commissioner Dr. Thomas Frieden said at a press conference yesterday.

“We’ve identified this strain of HIV that is difficult or impossible to treat and which appears to progress rapidly to AIDS.”

Ronald Valdiserri, a deputy director at the federal Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta, said: “We’re talking about a single case, but clearly the fact that we are dealing with such broad resistance of drugs and the rapid clinical progression is quite alarming.

“We have to use this as a wake-up call to remember that HIV is still a formidable adversary,” he…

Funny, some still seem to think AIDS was invented by gays to take over the world or whatever.

It spreads rapidly among gay men due to lack of information on how to prevent it. The best way to protect oneself, bar not being intimate at all, happens to be the condom, and heterosexuals commonly use it for other reasons, getting the benefit of protection in the process. Gay men can also do the same, but not many know that it can also serve this purpose.

Also, do you even know what a "hate crime" is?

As for the kid, that wasn't a very nice thing to say. You know, kinda like the things many homosexuals have to endure quite a lot.

look WOW i dont want to argue. im not selfish i just wanted to share my story and hear others too. I do know that other people are mistreated, religions are, "fat, skinny, and ugly people" But this forum isn't about them, i could start another forum about fat, skinny or ugly people.
