Re-post this if you believe Homophobia is wrong. Please do your part to end it.
I am the girl kicked
out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am prostitute
working on the street because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.
I am the sister who
holds her gay brother tight trough the painful tear-filled nights.
We are the parents who
buried our 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 I will probably 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 the Realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a
one-bedroom for two men.
I am the mother who is
not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court
says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
I am the
domestic-violence survivor who found 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 to turn to because I am a
male.
I am the father who
has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other
man.
I am home-economics
teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians
do that.
I am the man who died
when the paramedics stooped treating me as soon as they realized I was
transsexual.
I am the person who
feels guilty because I think I could be much better person if I did not have to
always 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
has to hide what this world needs most, love.
I am the person who is
afraid of telling his loving Christian parents he loves another male.
