Sick, Sad World
On her two blogs, Pam Spaulding posted the question “What is the most anti-LGBT encounter/interaction you’ve ever had?”, and invited her readers to post their answers in the comments section.
Most of us know that our society is terribly homophobic, but these stories drive home how terrible. Granted, these stories about the “worst” of people’s experiences, not the most common. But it still makes you want to say “fuck the whole world.”

I read about 5 of those on the first link and had to stop.
I don’t understand why people are so afraid of that which differs fraid of that which differs from them, and I further fail to understand why if they are confused they don’t simply find a way to educate themselves and obtain clarity (if for no other reason but for their own peace of mind). All of this hatred toward that which is different seems to take a lot more energy than necessary. I just don’t understand it at all. It saddens me deeply and gives me NO hope or faith in humanity at large.
