This is kinda a serious post.


Basically I think that this comes from us having to fight for rights for the past 30 years. So the older generation who have been fighting for gay rights since the 70s 60s even have made them being gay such a big part of themselves to be able to fight for their rights. But now that these rights are starting to exist and become realised, they do not know what to do with themselves all that's known is "gay" and they simply keep on making "being gay" the most important part of themselves because they do not know what else to do. In terms of the younger generation, gays that have been coming out in the last let's say ten years, leading up to now, its such a big thing to come out. So, all of the friends know, blah blah blah, all these different groups suddenly know and they (gays) have an identity crisis. And you want to discover who you are and this new big gay-thing has just popped out in your life or has developed into something greater in your life and so you want to express that. After doing that for a long time, they suddenly realise " oh that's not all there is to me............... but what else is there?". SO they just keep on thinking that gay is the most important thing about themselves. Also since the prop 8 is like arising we have to like change our mindset on gay rights. Marches and all that jazz no longer can bring rights to us. Wr have to blend in with the society. We have to be normal people. Not just gays in a gay ghetto because that's all that the society sees in a bad way like AIDS or drug. They don't see gays that have integrated with the societies like doctors, engineers or STUDENTS.

DO's and Don'ts when you're around a gay guy

1. You DO have to watch what you are saying to us cause we are emotionally unstable. We have a strong mouth but we have a thin skin.
2. DO treat us as normal people but keep in mind that we are gay.
3. DON'T talk/ask anything about gender like whether we think this is hotter or not. Like whether one thinks that this guy is hot or not.
4. DON'T call us gays in public. We are fine with being gay, but the word do bring us fear especially those who just came out.
5. DON'T believe our expression. We can hide meanings in our expressions. A smile may not always be a smile. Different smile signifies different things ( I'll teach you about the different smiles on later posts)
