Lady GaGa and Homosexuals were Born This Way!


I think this decade will be defined as the decade that resolved Gay Rights. Look how far we have come in just ten years. In the 1990s the general population still thought homosexuals were genetically and mentally retarded human beings. Just last year there were many pro-homosexual movements all over the world. In China, the current gay generation defines themselves as the ‘Transitional Generation’, meaning that they believe they are the generation that will pave the way into a more homosexual-accepting China. The NOH8 campaign is a picture-based movement started by a photographer showing how many people, gay and straight, are sick and tired of the hate constantly being received from the conservative and elder population. India, another “straight” country has already seen quite a few gay-parades in its time and they are growing. With all this talking (or typing) of homosexual facts from all over the world what is my view you wonder? 

At first when I learned what a homosexual was I will honestly say I was disgusted. I thought how a dude can have a relationship with another dude? Today I realize that my parents intentionally planted that idea and similar thoughts into my brain. Over time as I grew up and became a junior in high school I had different feelings towards homosexuals. Mainly because I had friends that were either gay or bisexual, and I did not even know they were “different” anyways. I always saw my homosexual friends as normal human beings with a weird pitch in their vocal cords. When I realized they were gay, that’s when I started questioning my Christian beliefs. In the Christian world a companionship between two men or two women is unacceptable and forbidden, end of story. Throughout my junior year and senior year of high school I continued to find my beliefs on homosexuals. One situation that helped me become more accepting towards the gay community in senior year was having lesbian friends. 

Have you ever seen two smoking hot girls make out right in front of you? I have, and watching those two beautiful ladies engage in PDA is truthfully what made me more accepting. My question is what straight guy doesn’t honestly want that to happen; I bet many straight men fantasize about a scene involving two females in close proximity to each other’s lips. In conclusion, today I believe that the homosexual population is normal, yes it’s that simple. Homosexuals are normal human beings that should be treated like everybody else. It does not matter if you’re black skin, brown skin, yellow skin, red skin, white skin, gold skin, homosexual, a dwarf, or a giant; we are all genetically 99.9% similar in one way or another. With that I say to all the homophobes: WELCOME TO THE 21st CENTURY!

  3. I could relate to your situation growing up. It's nice to know you found your own acceptance for our gay community with such pressure from your religious background. All guys know 2 girls kissing is a 'must-see' event hahaha Kudos how that helped influence your upbringing.
