Hi. It has been 4 days since Trump was elected US president and the reports of gay bashing across the country is breaking my heart. I am not gay and I don't know any gay people who I could call close friends other than on facebook. I'm hoping to meet up on Thanksgiving. But how can people who are not directly involved not feel this horrific injustice and turn their heads is beyond me. What is their life like that they can do so so easily?
Anyway, I wanted to let the readers of this story know that I will be switching back and forth from present day Mitch (immediately after winning the Sing Off) and conversion therapy 16 year old Mitch. Basically, I've decided to do that because I want to lay out the very slow and disgusting method of convincing Mitch and society accepting that being gay is wrong.
But I can't just stay there or I swear my heart will break, shrivel and die. I need to write about present day Mitch learning that being gay is okay, great in fact.
Another warning - It is possible for this story to take 4 years to complete. I am hoping this story will help me maintain hope that the US will get back on track on advancing, protecting and celebrating gay and minority rights now with grass root organizations and in 4 years with electing a president that reflects a love and acceptance for all.
So that's that. Thank you for reading and thank you Wattpad for creating a place to channel fear and enjoy thinking about possibilities.
