Do you live in a small town? That was my
problem when I was younger. I moved to the
big city where people don't care as long
as you are cool and honest. I never had a
problem accepting myself..I love me and if
someone judges me or doesn't like me
because I am gay then that is there
problem, not mine. You just have to know
where and when you can be "out" if you
live in a small town. Dont let anyone put
you down. If someone is being hateful or
confrontational or trying to pick a fight
because you are gay then just walk
away...it isn't worth getting hurt just
because some close minded red neck cant
accept the fact that we are all different.
If a guy has a problem with gay guys then
he probably has some "on the down low" or
"closet case" issues and you really cant
talk since to that kind of person. It
really depends on if you live in a rural
area or a city...but be happy with who you
are and know that there are millions of us
out here and its good to be gay!
