Love is Love

by Alex D'Silva

I live each day in silence. Truth is some days I hate being gay; I’m sick of having to put up with ignorant/homophobic peoples gay bashing day in and day out. Well I’m done being silent I’ve got something to say!

Dear people that are queer and out

by Anonymous

I love people that are out. no matter if your are male, female or trans. Just about most queers have some kind of impact on me. Most queers inspire me just by being queer. It is so nice to see other queers out there. It helps me feel less alone and it makes me feel proud to be a queer myself. I don't think that there are enough of us who are queer and out about themselves. I think that it is such a shame that some of us don't even feel ok with who we are and feel like we have to hide who we are and/or be someone that we are not.

Acceptance

by Brent Querin

With each situation presented to you, you will learn a little bit about yourself. Being open towards others just may result in experience, growth and insight. Accepting people for who they are becomes easy when you realize that we all want to be desired, important, loved and supported. Every human is flawed in some form or fashion, no one is perfect. As much as we are the same, we are very different. There is no right and wrong when it comes down to how people think or act. There is only misunderstanding, assumptions, and judgments in all areas.

Half boy-half girl

by: Anonymous

I want to be half boy, half girl
I like certain parts, and not others
I like my rough boys frame,
I hate my boyish scraggly arms,
I hate the way my hair falls into a part if I let it grow just a touch too long,
I hate the way my breasts hang heavy against my chest
But I love the way my waist curves in to part my womanly chest from my tight little boyish hips
I love the way my calves are curvy, and that I have 'girlish' legs
I hate the way my muscles refuse to grow, no matter how hard I work out
