I found this on Defectivebrainstorm's profile ... I'm not gay, or bi, but I agree with this 100

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I was a lesbian

I am the prostitue working the streets because no one will hire a transsexual woman

I am the sister who hold her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights

We are the parents who buried their daughter long before her time

I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room

I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had

I wish they could adopt me

I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year they say I should be able to walk again

I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.

We are the couple who had a realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom apartment for two men

I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use to avoid getting the managment called on me

I am the mother who is not allowed to visit the child I bore, nursed and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I am now living with another woman

I am the domestic violence survivor who felt the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.

I am the domestic violence survivor who has no support system because I am male

I am the father who never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men

I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me only lesbians do that

I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they found out I was transsexual

I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a better person if I didn't always have to deal with society hating me

I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind

I am the person who is afraid to tell his loving Christian parents he loves another male

I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most of all: love.
