Being gay is no big hoo ha

and if only both gay and straight people understand that.

Being gay is not about getting drunk, getting tattoos, smoking our lives out, being frivolous in the area of choosing partners, having lots of sex etc etc .. Being gay is not about being preoccupied with being laid and definitely not about staring at boobs and penises all the time.

Sadly, we often stand out for the wrong reasons. From time to time, even I find some of us too different. So I can imagine how the conservatives heterosexuals feel. It takes time to get used to some people. Activists can be very aggressive and rebels can be very offensive at times. People with tattoos normally have a sad and messed up story behind their ink. I have not heard anyone saying: " I am collecting tattoos because they look good". Many of us stand out often in public, in the news, for everything the conservatives heterosexuals do not do and do not stand for.. and maybe that's why they link homosexuality to being wayward.

I have always felt the importance to set ourselves apart for this purpose and for me, part of a greater purpose for God's glory. Sure, we don't have to change for people to accept us, and sure, we have to be ourselves, but we can also be wise in helping others regulate their acceptance of us so it becomes easier for them too. Afterall, if that's our deepest wish, that all our friends, families and loved ones would accept us and our partners, won't we want to help to facilitate that process? Being gay is nothing more than wanting to spend my life with the person I love, like everyone else. The only difference is that I prefer my partner to be of the same gender as I am. And that's why I am writing my homosexual agenda everyday, so that people will know I am no different from them.
