ACCEPTANCE, the homosexual dream. Can we, as homosexuals, actually achieve acceptance? Or, is it merely a dream that will always be just that, a dream? No matter where you are in the world, if there are lesbians around, they will always bring this up "the heteros don't accept who we are". Though that may be the case, why should it matter when we don't accept ourselves and our peers within the LGBTQ community?
In order to be acknowledged as a fem, you must; dress, sound, and appear as such. If a lesbian should happen to wear; baggy jeans, a shirt, sneakers, and a bare face; off the top, you'd assume she is an AG. See, that's not the issue. The issue is when she is dressed in that manner, yet portrays the "characteristics" of a fem, people tell HER that she IS an AG.
Some say that people who chose not to label themselves make it hard for others to classify them.... well, you know what I say to that? ... DUH! Who voluntarily classifies themselves to meet & stay restricted to guidelines of their sexuality? Let me clarify, if you decide ON YOUR OWN to label yourself, that's YOUR choice. Don't let the ignorant and biased opinions of others keep you confined in a box of "guidelines" while you can be expressing your true, inner self.
People need to realize and grasp the fact that clothes do not define our complete personalities or sexualities. It is not your role to place your label on a person without knowing the slightest thing about them. Judgmental people are always the first to say "Don't judge me" Oh, no, we will flood you with ignorance until you beg for mercy. (evil smile, lol just kidding)
Acceptance from others will come once we start accepting EACH OTHER for who we are. No matter our race, religion, color, gender, sex, creed, nationality, or sexual orientation. You can influence many, but the only life that you control is your own. Live & love freely.
