Your post reads odd, like gay people who newly "come out" must have some type of handicap and need constant coddling like a newborn? If I had a kid and he said dad, I'm gay. I'd say so, why didn't you tell me earlier? Now go park the lawnmower and rearrange/organize my workbench. That's it.
Anyway, reading between the lines I understand your gay and feel you were born that way. What bugs me is how gay people politicize this to enforce straight people to be tolerant and understand as if you were handicap due to your root sexual preference.
I also understand public gay events to get people to "come out", but I just can't grasp the reason why people need this type of attention when these resources/events can better/identify the root cause of why people truly "hate" homosexuals.
I don't doubt for a second people are born gay as this is not the core cause of the hatred. It's the collateral damage caused by gay people who were born/made gay, who hate being gay. They'll live a lie to protect this secret at all costs even if it destroys lives, as they run the risk of destroying their own lives/families/careers/reputations.
Instead of helping, openly gay people enable them, causing a a nonstop cycle of destruction that creates even more hatred, as your main focus it to brand breeders, bigots if called anything derogatory about a homosexual preference.
In short, I find fanatical openly gay people to be hypocritical and purely self absorbed.

Or it is the case that any child that is going through anything that takes that amount of courage needs a support network. In this case, it happens to be because they came out as being gay. In any number of situations, there are parents who say they love and support their kids but then aren't actually backing those words up with that love and support. That is what I was saying. It could be a career choice, it could be dying their hair pink, whatever. In this case, it is being gay.
I find the term 'fanatical openly gay' fairly ridiculous. How many straight people do you know that are 'fanatical openly straight' and that is just fine?
Yeah, the kid made a choice - though it looks like in this case he was discovered rather than made the choice - and a brave one at that. Congrats to him. |
