i'm in love with lesbians.

i kind of have a huge crush on rachel maddow. i have for a long time.

i dont even know what's going on in this video. i just really like to watch her talk in all her butchness and awkward sarcasm.

furious.

to every single person who has said they dont want gay marriage to be legal because they dont want it taught to their children in school....

i'm horrified.

this has made me so frustrated i can't even express it. for my own reasons this makes me angry, but watching oprah today made me furious.

the two young boys who's mothers talked to oprah today about losing their sons to suicide were bullied, manly because the bullies thought they were gay.

this is the kind of hate that will continue to breed in a hostile environment. the only way to lessen hate is to teach acceptance. when will you closed minded ignorant judges change your ways and learn to let others be? why do you feel so threatened at people being different than you?

i want same sex marriage to be legal for so many reasons, but this is the biggest reason to me... if our children keep learning that marriage is only right one way then we will only continue to breed intolerance and ignorance.

the truth of the matter is, no matter what marriage is to you or me, to some it is a union between two men or two women. this is love to some people, this is their life, this is them... we HAVE to figure out a way to accept that. i dont mean in a 'i love them i just dont love what they do' kind of way... i mean in a real way, in a way where we wholly accept them and allow them to have the rights we feel we deserve. this is not just for them, it is for us as a society, for our future. so that hopefully we can move towards more love and more acceptance and farther away from me being right and you being wrong (and that being all that matters). if you dont teach your children that people can love differently than them and should still have the rights they themselves enjoy, then i truly hope someone else will teach your child that.


(and just so i dont get any arguments with these stances:
yes i think plural marriage should be legal.
within the range of adulthood (whatever age we as a society decide that to be)two consenting adults (or more), i believe, should be allowed to love who they want and be able to express that in the same ways i am allowed to. )

seth showed me...

this today.

i dont believe in the bible necessarily, i dont really know what it means to believe in the bible, because i dont understand all that it says, not even close. i dont believe in living your life according to a book... but i know a lot of people do, a lot of people i'm really close to do, so understand i'm not saying thats bad i just have to say that this isnt me defining what i'm living by or saying the bible says a certain thing in a way to justify what i believe. i choose what i believe not based on the bible and i'm not saying i think this is truly what the bible says, but it makes a whole lot more sense to me than anything i've heard on this subject and i think its interesting. i certainly think if you are going to live your life according to what a book says, you should understand that other people can be living their life according to that same book and be living almost opposite of you... and both could be right, both could be wrong.... i'm saying this because i dont want a bunch of comments of people acting like they know the end all of what the bible 'really says' because its lost on me. if you tell me that you somehow know that what you believe the bible says is the absolute right interpretation, or that its not an interpretation, i wont believe it, cause i dont believe anyone has the right doctrine or has the bible figured out... and i do believe EVERY person who reads the bible is interpreting it, because there is no way to comprehend what you are reading, unless your minds interprets it. you can't be objective.

all of this was inspired by this.

i thought it was hilarious.

i tested lesbian.

last night i had a dream that i had peed on one of those little sticks that you have to pee on when you're pregnant every week... you ladies know what i mean? anyway they have all these boxes that turn different colors if there's an imbalance in your protein or ph or whatever... in my dream they all turned purple and i asked what that meant and they said it meant i was a lesbian. ... then another lady came up to me showed me hers and said 'i am too! dont worry, it doesn't hurt.'

what?

thomas

the pregnant man. i dont get why people are getting so angry about this... or why some people insist on calling him a woman still.... to me it seems when people are born feeling like they are not the gender they are born into and then they change, we should give them the respect of calling them by who they feel they really are.... even if they decide to keep their reproductive rights as their former gender.... i just dont understand why its such a big deal... they are doing something that is making them immensely happy, they deserve that chance like any one of us, nancy couldn’t have children, its not hurting anyone.... it doesn’t seem that wild. its weird that people can’t be compassionate towards this, acting like this is fun and easy for thomas and nancy.. thomas didn’t choose to be born into what he feels was the wrong gender, thats a really serious intense issue to have to deal with... and the last thing someone who deals with that needs is people scrutinizing them as if its just easy and fun for him to have to go through all those changes etc. anyway.... i just think in a world where a woman can become a man and vice versa its odd that its shocking or surprising that one of those people would want to have a baby someday of their own. i can understand that people will not understand it and be confused or even not agree, but why so much hate for something not hurting you or anyone else and really making a lot of people very happy?
