Hmm. So I have a "free post". But what to do with it? Ah, I know! I'll rant about the idiots at my school. No, I'm not naming names and no, this does not in any way refer to everyone at my school.
Before we begin, I'm going to say that I'm straight. No doubt about it. That being said, I absolutely cannot put up with people that are intolerant of bisexuals and homosexuals. I want to scream every time I hear someone remark "That's so gay" when they think something is undesirable in some way (bad, annoying, stupid, unfair, etc). Half the time, I think they really don't even process what they're saying. But that's not really any better: it just means that prejudice against homosexuals has become accepted by society.
Whenever I think about it, I really start to wonder why anyone cares about anyone else's sexual orientation. I've come to the conclusion that a lot of people are just scared, either for the "future of traditional marriage" or because they think that every homosexual of the same sex that they ever meet is sexually attracted to them, both of which I find utterly ridiculous. If the gay couple down the street gets married, is that going to cause you to leave your wife and kids and run off with the mailman? I really don't think so. Are you sexually attracted to every member of the opposite sex that you ever meet? Didn't think so. So why should homosexuals be any different?
Of course, I've never yelled all of this at anyone in person. Much too shy. But one day I might snap. That would feel soooooooo amazing.
