Remembering Matthew
Edited on Fri Oct-14-11 01:50 AM by economistman
My question is: Are things really so much better for gay people now?

We've had TV shows, and mainstream movies nominated for Oscars, we have gay marriage in several states. And yet we still have suicides and hate crimes.

Jesusland

There is a thirteen-year-old boy in America who walks to school this morning. He believes he is a pervert because he is sexually attracted to a boy in his class. Undressing in the locker room for gym, he is terrified he will get an erection or his friends will notice him staring at the other boys and call him a homo.
