HOMOPHOBIA IS WRONG

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.

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

I am the girl who came out to the entire school in her senior speech and got a standing ovation for her courage.

I am the girl who kisses her girlfriend on the sidewalk and laughs at those who glare.

We are the couple who planned and studied and got a damn good lawyer and BEAT the state that wanted to take our child away.

We are the ones who took martial arts classes and carry pepper spray and are just too dangerous to gaybash.

I am the lesbian who uses the bathroom that suits me, and demands that any complaining staff explain their complaint to my face in front of the entire restaurant -- and shares with my other gay friends which restaurants /don't/ raise a stink.

I am the mother who told her lesbian daughter to invite her girlfriend over for dinner.

I am the mother who punished her son for calling you a fag.

I am the one who told her preacher to shove it, when he started speaking down to her about her sexuality

I am making a difference. Hate will NOT win.

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN QUOTES THAT I LOVE!

-if we don't have the key, we can't open whatever it is we don't have, that it unlocks. so what purpose would be served in finding what need be unlocked- which we don't have, without first finding the key that unlocks it.

-you want me to find this?

you want you to find this. because the finding of this finds you incapacitorially finding and/or locating in your discovering, a detecting of a way to save your doughty belle, ol' wha's-her-face.
savvy?

-nobody move! i've dropped me brain...

-we shall have a magnificent garden party and not invite him.

-mr.gibbs, you can take the honors and throw my hat... now go get it.





SAYINGS THAT ARE VERY TRUE AND ALOT OF THEM I BELIEVE IN!


-LOVE… is friendship set one fire.

-I throught my boyfriend was
KNIGHT IN SHINNING ARMOR
be he turned out to be
my dork in aluminum foil

-I want you to look at me like
you’ve never looked at anyone else
I want you to look at me like
I have something others girls don’t


-I want a NOTEBOOK romance,
a love like Corey and Tapanga,
and a story like A Walk to Remember,
and I want it to be with him.


-The best things in life are when,
we close our eyes that’s when we
kiss,
cry,
and dream.


-Having the love of your life break up with you
and saying “we can still be friends” is like
your dog dying and your mom saying,
“you can still keep it”


-Once upon a time, something happened to me,
it was the sweetest thing that could ever be,
a fantasy, a dream come true, it was the day
I met you.


-Im the girl who loves you inside & out,
backwards & forwards with my heart hanging out,
I love you no other way.

-They can love us,
they can hate us,
but they can never;
separate us.


-The first time my heart was broken,
I thought I was through.
I swore I’d never love again,
until I found you.


-The best way to love,
is to love like you’ve never been hurt…


-You promised to be my forever,
when did forever become only days.


-Never make someone
your everything,
because when they leave
you’ve got nothing.

Papa Roach : Forever


in the brightest hour, of my darkest day
i realised what is wrong with me
cant get over you, cant get through to you
its been a helter skelter romance from the start
take these memories that are haunting me
of a paperman cut into shreds by his own pair of scissors
he'll never forgive her he'll never forgive her

because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever
because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever

sittin by a fire on a lonely night
hangin-over from another good time
with another girl, little dirty girl
you should listen to this story of a life
your my heroine, in this moment im lonely fullfilling my darkest dreams
all these drugs, all these women
im never forgiven, this broken heart of mine

because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever

one last kiss, before i go
dry your tears, it is time to let you go
one last kiss, one last kiss, before i go
dry your tears, it is time to let you go

because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever
because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever

one last kiss, before i go
dry your tears, it is time to let you go
one last kiss, before i go dry your tears
it is time to let you go, one last kiss....



A PIRATES LIFE FOR ME.

yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
we pillage, we plunder, we rifle, and loot,
drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
we kidnap and ravage and don't give a hoot,
drink up me 'earties, yo ho.

yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
we extort, we pilfer, we filch, and sack,
drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
maraud and embezzle, and even high-jack,
drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.

yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
we kindle and char, inflame and ignite,
drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
we burn up the city, we're really a fright,
drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.

we're rascals, scoundrels, villans, and knaves,
drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
we're devils and black sheep, really bad eggs,
drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.

yo ho, yo ho, a pirate's life for me.
we're beggars and blighters, ne'er-do-well cads,
drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.
aye, but we're loved by our mommies and dads,
drink up, me 'earties, yo ho.

yo ho, yo ho,
a pirates life for me.
