AnonymousSexual orientation is what you are attracted to. It isn’t what you fuck, shake hands with, or even make a family with. Sexual orientation is like food. Food is great but there are so many different kinds it’s hard to choose a favorite, but you have one. There are even people that refuse to eat, touch, smell certain types of food.
What I find interesting is that humans automatically assume that your sexual orientation explains everything about you. When in reality, it explains NOTHING about you. There is nothing about sexual orientation that can predict a persons behavior. Everything surrounding sexual orientation is assumption.
With that said, the current behavior displayed by politicians, church leaders, scientists, teachers, parents and every day human beings tells me that we are uneducated on the subject.
We think we’re advanced because we have the internet. We think we know all there is to know because we can scan the brain, save lives with transplants, inject women with eight fetuses, destroy countries with a press of a button or travel into space. We’re so behind it’s sad.
We need to take a moment and re-evaluate ourselves.
We mourn the loss of life when teens commit suicide over their sexual orienation. Yet, no one wants to take responsibility for it. We are all responsible when a child takes their own life. We failed those kids.
Now, with President Obama speaking his mind on gay marriage we’ll hopefully see some shift in a good direction.
As you can see there is no simple answer to this. We’re all searching for an answer. And I’m afraid while we search for them innocent people will have their lives destroyed.
