Look, I know, alright. That's just...it is still a lie. It doesn't just get better for everyone. You have a much higher percentage of homosexual teens engaging in five or more risky behaviors every day. Over half of them started smoking by thirteen, and of those most will never be accepted by their community, family, or both.
Painting the wall in pretty colours doesn't just make it better, it doesn't change that you still have adults and teens alike attacked by gangs for their sexuality. People preaching on streets that your nothing more than garbage. Those that had their lives improved were lucky, but why sugar coat it?
Nothing gets better for people just because you go out into the world and can put rose coloured glasses on. Yeah, its a touchy subject...yet notice how no one does anything until someone else is a dickwad. Shouldn't prevention be proactive instead of retroactive?
What would we have to talk about?
