Gay. --- Beautiful.
Lesbian. --- Amazing.
Bisexual. --- Awesome.
Transgender. --- Special.
Questioning. --- Incredible.
Straight. --- Sometimes Judgmental.
Welcome to the #LGBT community. We love everyone.
We support them. So why can't you? Is it against your religion?
It may be. But you still don't need to be judgmental. It's their choice.
No. We're not "faggots."
We just have attraction to the same gender.
And sometimes both genders.

When you're about to speak words that may hurt people,
especially if it's about their chosen sexuality, think about something.
Is it enough to create another suicidal?
Is it even close to rude?
Even if it's "Why are you gay?"
"Why are you lesbian?"
Don't say that. It could hurt them; it could hurt anyone.

Here's a quote from one of my favorite books, Simon Vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda, by Becky Albertalli:
"Why is straight the default? Everyone should have to declare one way or another, and it shouldn't be this big awkward thing whether you're straight, gay, bi, or whatever. I'm just saying."
That quote is so true, and without this book, I wouldn't be the same.
I'm recommending this book to those who need something to do or read on their free time.
Or for those who don't know what their sexuality is.
And you don't even need to know what it is quite yet.
You're you,
and your choices are your choices.
Thank you.
