Oh yeah, I definitely agree with you. It's ridiculous. Granted, I tend to like more BL pairings than hetero, but that doesn't mean it's something that should be discriminated against! Whether in fandom or IRL relationships, it's like...jeez, just let everyone like what and who the heck they want. No matter where you look, and no matter what clique you belong to, there always seems to be "rules." In all communities, there's someone that's a part of said community that can still be called an enemy by the others, which makes no sense to me. No one is safe from discrimination, sadly. :( This world needs to learn how to accept others for who they are. Lots of people seem to think the world IS black and white, but it sure isn't!
You're welcome! And I'm doing ok. I dyed my hair today lol. It's a red color...not orange-red, but more deep burgundy. :) I'm keeping busy with my graphics work and not doing much more than playing video games haha.
Yessss, it makes me incredibly happy every year <3 Looks like I live in Yaoi City haha!
I'm glad you agree with me! I just hope that "let's be heterophobic" trend will end one day because, no matter the fandom, I always see people saying that if you ship anything heterosexual, it's wrong, and, if you are hetero, it's even worse... Ugh, why would some try to control others feelings when they hate when it happens to them? And, yeah, you're right about people pushing to hate believers because of a few... It just makes even more hatred with no purpose. I just don't understand that logic .__. The world isn't black or white, is it?
Thanks! And I hope everything's going well for you :)
Oh wow! That is sooooo cool. <3 Lucky you! Getting a yaoi con right in your city. *__* I don't go to cons, but a yaoi one sure would be delicious. XD Looks like you got lots of great things! <3 Mmmm!
That really is sad about that badge! A good majority of people that like yaoi/yuri are heterosexual anyway lol. But it's the same thing with seeing a lot of LGBT individuals that push a hatred or bias against religious people, too. Not everyone that believes in God and reads the Bible think that they're sinners or something. And you can be LGBT and also love God. Ugh. Like you said, hate breeds hate, no matter whose "side" you're on. Sadly, the world is a mixed up place. I mean, being discriminatory about who you love? It's silly. *shakes head* Allies are everywhere, but enemies make a bigger fuss. /rant lol
Anyhoo, I'm glad that you had a fun time at that con. :] Take care!
