Also on a more serious note

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.

I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.

I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.

We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.

I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.

I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.

I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.

I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.

We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.

I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.

I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.

I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.

I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.

I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.

I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn’t have to always deal with society hating me.

I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind. ^{and I stopped believing because of it}

I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.

I am the adolescent who stopped attending school because I couldn't handle the risk of being shunned should anybody have found out I wasn't interested in girls.

I am the teen who can't seek out my parents for emotional support because they'll question my beliefs instead of helping.

I am the person who looks like you, talks like you, walks like you, and works like you in every possible way, but who you're willing to treat as an inferior being because I like other males.

I am the teen who grew up afraid of showing affection, even friendly gestures, towards my friends for fear of being picked on and called 'gay'.

Repost this if you believe homophobia is wrong.

I put some in bold that stand out strongly to myself.

Well, this is going to be a long one, but I say this because this is so not cool and that I am very very mad. So this is a consumer report.

I bought a Nintendo DS and a game 2 years ago with a coupon. At the check out desk I was asked if I wanted to buy a warranty on my DS and I accepted. I was glad I did because sure enough, the DS had a flaw in where I couldn't re-calibrate my touch screen and it would drift. Of course I couldn't get an exchange that easily, I had to send the DS in and get a gift card to buy a new one. I procrastinated because I had save file data on it for all of my WiFi games. I bought a new one a little less than a year ago (the flat black and crimson one) and then transfered the data.

Today I remembered that I had to return it so I called customer service and talked to some chick who was kinda pushy and told me that I had to do it online because I had a computer. I said okay because I'm not confrontational and it wouldn't kill me to do it. Well I did and as I was about to click "OK" I noticed something. I would be given a gift card with only 100 dollars on it. A DS costs 129.99. Totally confused and kinda ticked off that I have to call AGAIN I did so. I talked to the same woman who was mad that I was calling again. I explained the problem like the website said I should and she looked up my information and said that she couldn't do anything about it (WTF CALL THEN?!?!?!) and that I had to deal with the Circuit City that I had bought it from. Well, that Circuit City closed.

I told her that and she said that it was my problem! My problem lady, oh hell no, that's your problem! I said that I needed to talk to her supervisor right away.


Get this, she actually told me that I couldn't and that there was no one higher!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I'm filling a formal complaint as I took care of the problem at a neighboring Circuit City who were infinitely more helpful and I won't be out of the DS but I'll have two so I'll probably sell it and whatnot. I'm just mad right now though. Do not buy from Circuit City and avoid what I went through, Best Buy is much better at this kind of thing.
