There are so many rights that are refused to the LGBT community that everyone else has, and why are these rights refused for this group of people? Why is it such a taboo to be gay? I feel that if you're going to refuse these basic rights to a whole group of people, then you'd better have a damn good reason for it. It's not like we're even asking for much! We're just asking to be recognized as an equal, just like women and African Americans once asked. We just want equal rights! Is that too much to ask for? Country of the free, my ass.
There are many arguments against homosexuality. Whether they makes sense or not, people always make the argument that the bible says that love and marriage should be between a man and a woman.
"Leviticus 20:13 If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltiness is upon them."
If this were so, then why are other aspects of the bible overlooked, while the claims against homosexuality aren't?
The bible suggests that people who divorce and remarry are committing adultery, and the old testament prescribes death for adultery. So why is divorce and remarrying not a taboo while homosexuality is? The bible also suggests that slavery is morally acceptable. How is that moral?
When these points are argued, you are told that you are pulling those passages out of context. You're told that it isn't okay to pull the passages out of context for these points that you are bringing up, but why is it okay to pull the passages of homosexuality out of context?
While I have every bit of respect for people who are religious, I don't have any respect for those who push their beliefs onto me. Those who tell me that the way I live my life is morally wrong will be punched in the face, or at least hear an ear full of not-so-pretty words.
When speaking of the LGBT community, the only aspect that they focus on is the sexual aspect. When speaking about heterosexual relationships, they talk about the relationship and love parts. When they speak about homosexual relationships, they talk about the sex part. They say that the way I live my life is a "lifestyle" while heterosexual people live "lives." Umm, fuck you. Love and sex between two people of the same gender does not differ from love and sex between two people of the opposite genders. Are gays only capable of having sex? If so, then I must say, seek out a gay! We'll give you some sex. We must be very adept at it.
HIV/AIDS also revolves specifically around the gay community. Homosexuality causes AIDS, is the argument. No, it doesn't. Unprotected sex and even nonsexual activities cause the spread of the AIDS virus, NOT homosexuality. Please open up your mind, and see that sex between a man and a woman can spread the disease just as easily.
Ask yourself, are these arguments against homosexuality worth condemning a whole group of people for being who they are?

Photo Shoot Ideas.
Maybe? I've been rolling these ideas around in my head, and would love to recreate some of these photos. They're all unique in their own ways. We'll see what happens. The one I want to do most, is the one with the buttcrack showing. xD Don't judge me. I just think it's cute.

I may also travel to California for a few days. Either there, or New York. I plan on buying lots and lots of clothes.
