Day 28 - Write a letter to someone. It can be a coming out letter or a letter regarding how you hate their homophobia or whatnot. You don’t have to send it.

Dear “best friend”, 

You don’t know the real me. After going through high school together, there’s one aspect of myself I never allowed anyone to know or see. I’m bisexual. I like girls and guys. This is me. I can’t change it. I can try and deny it, but that will only get me so far and I’ve been doing that for nearly 18 years of my life. I’m tired of hiding. I’ll understand if you don’t accept me because I can’t change you, but I can remind you.. That I’m still me. I’m still that same person who drunkly walked back from parties with you all those times, leaning on eachother for support. I’m still the same person who would record you making an absolute fool of yourself doing the most absurd things. I’m still the same person who would come over to your house just to eat food, and chat with randos from far away places in the world, telling them we’re twin sisters with big plans for the world. I’m still the same person who would make you peanut butter cookies when you were sad or feeling shitty. You need to remember, who I like or fall in love with, doesn’t define me as a person. I mean to a degree that person has an impact on who I am, but that’s the key word, “person”. I can’t predict who I will end up with and I hope that you care enough to just want me to be happy, regardless of who I’m with. I never intended on telling you, but I guess you do deserve to know. I just hope you’ll still love me in the end chickenbutt. 

Love always, me.

Day 26 - Your favorite gay joke (we all need to laugh at ourselves).

I couldn’t think of any so this is the first one I found and actually laughed.. So erm yeah it’s kinda long, but funny :)

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn’t help noticing how handsome John’s roommate was. She had long been suspicious of Johns’ sexual orientation and this only made her more curious.

Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the roommate than met the eye.

Reading his mom’s thoughts, John volunteered, “I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Mark and I are just roommates.”

About a week later, Mark came to John and said, “Ever since your mother came to dinner, I’ve been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don’t suppose she took it, do you?”

John said, “Well, I doubt it, but I’ll write her a letter just to be sure.” So he sat down and wrote: “Dear Mother, I’m not saying you ‘did’ take a gravy ladle from my house, and I’m not saying you ‘did not’ take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.”

Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which read: “Dear Son, I’m not saying that you ‘do’ sleep with Mark, and I’m not saying that you ‘do not’ sleep with Mark. But the fact remains that if he was sleeping in his own bed, he would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom”

Day 25 - The LGBT slur you hate most or if you’ve taken back a slur and used it as a definition, ie queer or fag.

Erm I think I dislike most when people say faggot idk it just sounds so harsh. Other than that it doesn’t really bother me unless you’re using it towards someone.

Day 24 - The stupidest argument/comment you’ve heard about gay people or an LGBT issue

Hmm I guess probably when people say, “You don’t look gay/bi..” or when people say, “How do you know you like girls when you’ve never even kissed one?” I just feel those are such stupid questions. You don’t see me walking around saying, “You don’t look straight.” or “So how do you know you don’t like someone of the same sex if you’ve never kissed them?” Idk that’s all I can think of haha.

Day 23 - An LGBT image that makes you cry or makes you angry.

I couldn’t find an image that made me cry or angry, but I read something on Tumblr today that made me pretty mad. It was about a boy who was getting hate for being who he was, and because of that it brought him to the point of attempting to kill himself. If there’s one thing that bothers me, it’s when people are completely insensitive to others for being who they are. You don’t know them, nor do you know the struggles they may have to deal with. I don’t understand what people gain from doing such hurtful and disgusting things. We’re all human, we’re all from the same matter. So, it’s when people do things like this.. That is what makes me angry/sad.

Day 21 - Political LGBT issue that is closest to you or affects you most.

So far I haven’t encountered any. I live in Canada and everything is fairly open, which is great :)

Day 20 - Maureen or Joanne? (Or your favorite LGBTQ show or queer-positive show).

No clue what that is. - Just Googled it and they’re from the movie Rent. I really don’t know any haha. The closest I get to watching anything LGBT on tv is Ellen.
