The H word

     So I believe this blog has been long expected of me. I'm here to speak on the infamous "H" word. Homogeneous? Homosapiens? Or Homosexuals? Ah yes, we are here to speak on the politically correct term of a type (category, culture, group, etc.) people that live their lifestyles with same sex partners. This topic is nothing new, but I felt it a need for me to write about my feelings on this. I'd like to think of myself as a strong-minded individual when it comes to conversations of this matter. So my words on this will, as usual, be very liberal and, while I try to stay as close to objective as I can, opinionated. If you are not as tolerant as you may know I am, then I advice you to not read on anymore. No. Forget that, I dare you to read on. Maybe Ignorance will be capable of learning something.
I am going to first just state that I am utterly and remotely disgusted by all of the bullying against the homosexual community this year. It just breaks my heart, and I burst into angry tears every moment that I think about the injustice they endure. I am aware that the brutality and ridicules lgbt have faced has been going on for decades, but I guess I was just naive enough to believe that we were moving on as a people. It was only false hope, I guess, that there weren't as many intolerant human beings who feared difference and lashed out on any deference of tradition. My thing is, OK you don't agree with their lifestyle. So what? You're entitled to your own opinions and beliefs, but do you have to go so far as to point and laugh and bully someone about their sexuality? Is your life that boring and unfulfilled that you must bother someone who is minding their own business? I mean, so what if they're homosexual or transgendered? Why do you even give a damn?! It's their lives, they aren't impending on your life. You will still be breathing the same air rather they were homosexual or straight.
I understand that a lot of people disagree with the lgbt lifestyle because it goes against their religion. I get it. If I identified with any religion, I would say that my religion doesn't believe in that as well. Although, I believe (and you can take this as some philosophical bologna if you want) that the only reason Jehovah God didn't want us with the same sex is because he/she wants us to be "fruitful". We were made to make this world plentiful, and back then a woman and woman or a man and a man could not have children. Before I state my next theory as my next opinionated fact, I'm going to have to go research something in the Bible. But I would say that just as in the Old Testament we were not allowed to eat dairy and meat or pig even, in the New Testament there were changes (you aren't going to Hell for eating a cheeseburger). Why can't the same be said for the lgbt culture? There is new technology now. We can be in a same sex relationship and have children together now. Just as there is technology, now, that cooks a pig all the way through for you to eat, in which you could not do in biblical times.
I guess I'm so passionate about this topic in result from me belonging to this social group. Yes, I am among the lgbt. I'm bisexual. No, I didn't decide to become one either just because of the recent fad of it being "cool" to be gay. I've always looked at women; I believe women are the most beautiful and unique minded creatures. I used to think that maybe it was because of my being sexually abused by a woman as a child, but I've realized that it has nothing to do with it. I honestly believe that if that never happened to me, I would have still gone through my bi-curiosity. I remember looking at my uncle's nude magazines and sneaking to stare at the ladies' chest in there. I also remember in elementary, a group of girls and me made up this little club called the "G club". Yes, you can only guess that the "g" stood for gay. We would tell people it stood for God, if they asked. These girls and I would sneak off to the bathroom and do miscellaneous activities that we should have not known about at our age(but I would guess that we were all mentally disturbed and in bad homes). I also remember random instances throughout my adolescent age after that until my sophomore/junior year of high school when I came to the conclusion that I might like girls. It is only sad that I just realized a couple years ago that my sexuality had a twist in it. I tried to hide from it. There were times when I was grossed out about it and the females I messed around with during that time. I just knew it was "wrong", and that it would never be accepted. I am and will always be sexually attracted by women, but romantically moved by men. It is who I am, and I cannot change it. So I've come to terms with my bisexuality and I accept it. I embrace it. I love it.
In the end, the question is people why do you care about what people do in their bedroom and who they're holding hands with? You take advantage of and belittle the only things that the lgbt community can wish it had. You divorce when it only wants to marry and you neglect the beings that it can only wish to adopt. It's just like racism. You unjustly treat them inhumanly. We didn't choose to be lgbt, we are it. And that doesn't give anyone a right to treat us any less.
