Chapter 1 - *Ahem*

Anyone who read my rant named "Equality" must read! IMPORTANT!

Chapter 1 - *Ahem*

Chapter 1 - *Ahem*


Announcement!!!!



You know what I said in my rant called “Equality”? Well, guess what? I'm here to correct some things.



First of all, you know that boyfriend I mentioned? He dumped me shortly after Christmas break because his friends didn't approve of me. Don't feel mad or sad for me because I never liked him to begin with.



Which leads me to my second point. This is something I've been putting off telling for way too long. I am a lesbian. Queer, homosexual, dyke, it doesn't matter what you call me. All I know is I am a girl who just happens to like girls.



That said, I will take the time to respond to the ten most frequent homophobic responses.



One: You mean you'd actually sleep with another girl?

Response: DUH! Saying it once wasn't good enough for you? Just so you know, though, I plan to stay a virgin until I meet someone I truly care about. (This was inspired by my friend who came out as bi's homophobic brother.)



Two: Ewwwwwwwwe! You're sick, dyke! Go to Hell!

Response: You know, I don't have the words to express the thoughts I am having right now. Or rather frankly, my dignity won't let me say them. By what you just said I have lost all respect for you and do not care about what you think. (Inspired by a flamer I received.)



Three: You have turned from the way of God and have failed to resist Satan's temptation.

Response: I really appreciate your concern for the well being of my soul, but let me clue you in on one thing: I AM NOT RELIGIOUS, ATHEIST, OR ANY OF THAT!!!! So please, stop trying to force your way of thinking on to me. Also, I don't think God would be so petty as to condemn people for that. (Inspired by a overly religious friend of my brother's.)



Four: Well, it's just a phase, and you'd change if you met the right man.

Response: Really? Do you know where this “perfect man” is? Because he would have to be a miracle worker to change what I've always been. A phase? Why would I go through a phase? I'm very comfortable with who I am and I don't feel the need to fit in with others.



Five: Did you become a lesbian because your boyfriend dumped you?

Response: All I can do is laugh at that question. Why? Because it's utter ridiculous. Like I said before, this is who I've always been, and NO ONE AND NOTHING MADE ME THAT WAY!!! I did not choose this, it choose me!!



Six: Does this mean you don't like men period?

Response: On the contrary. I am not a “feminazy” and most of my friends are guys.



Seven: But if Adam or Eve were gay, then the human race would be extinct!

Response: Then thank your lucky stars they weren't! Besides, think of this: If there were no gay or bi people, then the population problem would be worse than it all ready is!



Eight: Have you given up on raising a family?

Response: Never! There is such a thing as adoption! As far as the get-a-sperm-implanted-in-you thing, it's not appealing to me, but then again I'd have to talk about it with whoever is my partner at the time. Besides, I'm only 16! There'll be plenty of time to think about that!



Nine: Okay, you can be gay so long as you don't hit on me.

Response: Let me ask you one thing: WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD I DO THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE? There are bigger fish in the sea. Also, just because I'm gay doesn't mean I'll hit on every girl I meet!



Ten: You are a mentally sick person and you need to see a doctor.

Response: I really hope no one feels that way any more. I thought homosexuality was taken off the diseases list in 1973…..And if you still feel this way, then I have nothing more to say to you.



There you have it! If you still think that I am “living an unhealthy lifestyle”, then read all this over again and really think about it. However, if you still disagree, then it's your loss.



Note: I would like to take this time to apologize to all of the religious people who agree with me. I just got very upset with the way a lot of people use God as an excuse to hate others. I know that not all religious people are extremists.



Thank you for your time! Letting all that out really helped me. Once again, I'm sorry to all I may have offended, and I hope to see an end to the ignorant discrimination of LGBTQ teens, adults, and people of all ages!! Equality for all!!!

Moonchild10Congratulations! It's great that you're comfortable with who you are and that you don't let small-minded people get you down. *high-five* People who are closed-minded enough to discriminate because of someone's sexuality aren't worth listening to.
I think it's great that you posted this. Maybe some people who read it will rethink their ignorant opinions about these kinds of things. You made some very good points.

DarkMustangThank you so much for saying something like this, people need to know the truth. It's not a phase. It's not some side path from 'real love'. Why doesn't everyone else try to ingore their feelings for the opposite gender? It'd be just as effective, after all. Just as INEEFECTIVE, that is. And so what? They don't hit on every guy/girl they meet if they're straight, nor if they're gay/bi/lesbian. This is a truly commendable speech.

avi17Thank goodness for people like you! I agree with everything you said here. I think any prejudice, particularly racism and homophobia, is disgusting. Plus, those lovely people who use their religions as an excuse to hate and shun others have managed to effectively make me into someone without any religion at all.
Also, I think you're very brave, to tell everyone. I am bisexual, but even my parents don't know. Maybe I will tell them soon...
Anyways, I really admire you for making a stand.

Demon_of_the_Dark_Fall_clanI think that is just fine.It's ok if you're bi.It's just who you are.So all you ppl who hate lebians can kiss my @$$,cause I think it's ok if yu're that way or not.what's so bad about a girl liking a girl?a guy liking a guy is understandable to not like.But lesbians are ok in my book,and so are bi girls.*hugs them all*I think you ppl should be free to do what you want,and if that means a girl loving a girl,then alright.Let's get some drinks and party!

Yaoi_Rox_Me_SoxSo you like girls? good for you. i'm so happy that you have been able to realize something that for many would be a tough thing to realize. i know for some it's hard to come out, so i'm way proud of ya. also, i agree fullheartedly on what you have written. I am catholic myself, but i believe that God would love all his children, not just the straight ones. i loved your other rant and loved this one too. keep on trekking and my you someday find the person of your dreams, no matter their gender.

goth_revolutionThank you. Thank you for putting in words the things that have been running through my mind all these years. I don't want to get all rambly again, so that's all I'll say, because that's all that I think I really need to say, personally, and here I go again.

Kate-SamaBah,I hate people who think homosexuality is wrong,against the bible(i'm not rigilous,sorry Bible people! ^^;;),and just plainly hate lesbians and gays. As long as you love a person,what should it matter what sex they are?
You are a true solider,Junana,and I respect you deeply for being honest.Thanks for putting this page up,thus so poeple who hate homosexualality can finally understand their wrongs.Hey,i'm not homosexual,but I have at least three friends that are.Who cares what sex a person likes?It's what lives inside the heart that's important.
