How did we get here? What did we do to deserve this emotional hell? We are taught the same thing through the generations that we are an abomination that should be stoned and left to die. We have come so far but still learned so little. We have been called mentally ill and sick. They have tried playing God to fix us for decades and still try to fix in the shadows what was never broken to begin with. Our parents send us to counselors, shrinks, and doctors alike. And what have these people done to help us, nothing. Some of us have even been forced into self hatred of what we were born as, and why? Because some have parents that would rather not have a child than for them to be this way. Please tell me, when was the last time you had to come out to family as straight hoping that they wouldn't disown you and leave you on the side of the road or sent to a church to be "cured" of your sinful ways. Have you ever had to work into a conversation with a stranger that you're straight and let them down easy with the chance of what could have been a friend being in utter disgust because of something you did not choose. People ask if you could choose would you stay the way you are, to those I simply say this. I just want to be happy and live a normal life.
