Sexual Orientation

If there's one thing in society that I hate the most is the discrimination towards homosexuals and trans genders. So many young homosexual boys have committed suicide lately due to bullying. This isn't right at all! I have 2 homosexual friends and I don't treat them any differently than my other friends. I may sound inappropriate but I don't see the difference between two gay men in a bed and two men and a girl in a bed? The "three some" doesn't get bullied but the two gay men do? I don't see the difference but that's my point of view. I'll admit when I was younger I thought it was so gross for anyone to be homosexual but now that I've grown up I've come to realize that it's none of my business what they do and it shouldn't be anyone else's either. I find it fantastic that the ATA gives support to to students and teachers who are homosexual or transgender. I find it gives more of a safe and supportive environment for the students to learn in. I was extremely proud of the young girl who started a facebook group to support the homosexuals who have given up there life due to bullying. I was surprised to the amount of people in the college that actually wore purple on October 20,2010 in remembrance and support towards those individuals. No one should go through the bullying pain they did... bullying needs to stop, it's taking so many lives. I hope that in the future things will change and that my children will live in a safe, inviting environment at school.
