If you could change one thing about society.....
current mood: tired but happy
.
I am adding as you can see much more images to my blog posts than in the past which is because im a very visual person.
what would it be?
post your thoughts and ideas on here. i would love to hear what you would want to change.
I would want to end the wave of homophobia that is plagueing our country. George Bush is serving as a platform for the fundamentalists. So many states have added bans of gay marriage to their constitution and many more are expected to do similarily this year according to an article I just read. Our last election was about stopping the gay agenda and gay marriage. I want to stop the homophobic agenda. This is why as in my last post from yesterday I chose reason over passion. All this trying to ban gay marriage in the US constitution and state constitutions is about passion. How they feel about gays and what rights they feel they should have. Reason would tell you that all people deserve the same rights including the right to marriage. Reason would say that gay marriage is not going to destroy the santicty of marriage. Looking at marriage though in todays times, Britney's short marriage, such high divorce rates, and infidelity, it doesnt look like that much respect for marriage to me anyways. I am so tired of hearing snide remarks about homosexuals on campus, people like that lady on wife swap, hate crimes, not being able to publicly express affection without worrying about what someone is going to think,etc......! I do believe the community has made some advances in the last few years and that many more will come. The climate will improve. it will just take time.
Education and people getting to know homosexuals on a personal level is key to help change the tide. the latter would help change perceptions. I hope that one day I will have the right to marriage in this country and have all the federal rights that come with it. I believe one day that I will see it happen. For now though, I live as myself with no apologies. I dont force my homosexuality down anyone's throat. I am not trying to destroy America or marriage.Im just me.
