The sexuality of a person changes with each person you are faced with or come in contact with throughout the day. Homosexual people do not wear signs or have tattoos that say, “Hey! I’m gay!” (Well, maybe some might, but most do not.)

With the many goings on in the world, we, as a social community, still manage to find a way to be antisocial toward gays and lesbians. This is not to say that everyone has a problem with those with a different sexual preference, but think about it, gays and lesbians are not wanted in the United States Military, jobs are not given out due to one's sexual preferences and more. This isn’t fair.

What does it matter what anybody else does behind closed doors? It shouldn’t matter at all. Any self-respecting gay person will not hit on or come onto a straight person if they know that they’re not interested in such “activity”. And, even if they did make a mistake and present themselves to someone who is straight, so what? It’s a compliment. It’s just as much a compliment as if a man were to hit on a woman who just wasn’t interested in him. He would normally be thanked for the compliment and they would both be on their way.

We’ve all heard time and time again that all people are created equally. Well, that’s not the case, now is it? If it were the case, gays would have just as many rights as everyone else. What about all the rights and freedom that the black community fought so hard to get? While I’ll freely admit, they still haven't come as far as they should be; they’re still better off from where they started. But homosexuals are constantly beaten and chastised for their bedside manner -- as if it’s the problem of someone who isn’t sharing their bed. What does being gay say about a person that bothers society so much? It only points out whom they chose to sleep with.

If a lesbian woman, whom is highly intelligent and has all the right qualifications, went to apply for a job that an equally qualified straight woman just applied for, who do you think would get the job? Chances are, it’s the straight woman. And for what reason did she get this job other than the fact that she is straight? None.

If you pick up any application in the United States, you will see something to this affect:
“So and so” provides equal opportunity employment without regard to an applicant’s race, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, religion, or marital status.
That’s the biggest crock of shit I've ever heard! How many of us have been turned down from a job for these things? I know I have.

I suppose there’s not too much that can be done about this discrimination, which supposedly doesn’t exist, other than perhaps to rally or form petitions of some sort. But then, the group doing the rallying will just have fingers pointed at them for that, too. People will say that they just want attention or special rights. No, that’s not true . It’s not true at all. They just want the same rights and privileges everyone else has.

We, as a national community and neighbors, need to grow as people and come together. Perhaps if we did, there wouldn’t be so much animosity in the world.
