“Peers ‘taunt lesbian’ over cancelled dance”
Is the latest headline on the nine-msn website.
My fist issue with the article is that the teenage girl is described as “A lesbian teenager” ….
The issue with that is straight off she is being labelled. the paragraph reads:
A lesbian teenager claims she has been tormented by peers since her high school cancelled its graduation dance because she wanted to bring her girlfriend.
you can drop the lesbian part. I’m pretty sure everyone would understand that she is from saying “girlfriend”.
The rest of this article annoys me because of what happened.
Why CAN’T she take her girlfriend? There’s no difference in terms of love. Homosexuals love the same that heterosexuals love. To say that they don’t is wrong. To deny them equal opportunities, the SAME things that heterosexuals have is so unfair.
Why not let her take her girlfriend to the dance? She’s not harming anyone. It’s just as bad as not allowing someone to bring their partner based on skin colour or disability or religion.
The world is DIVERSE.
Everyone in it just has to see it.
I accept people for who the are. You can be Jewish, Catholic, Wiccan, Hindu, Asian, American, African, German, Gay, Straight, Bi-sexual, Transgender, Transsexual.
It does not matter to me. You’re still a person, you still have the right to fall in love, to be married and to be proud of who you are.
The only kind of, but not really, good part of what happened at the girl’s school is that they cancelled the entire dance as opposed to just not letting her attend.
Though, now she has to deal with being bullied because the dance got cancelled, which in the long run, is probably worse for her wellbeing.
The best she can do is be strong and not give up on who she is.
The same for every.
Be proud to be you and never give that up. For anything. If someone is asking you not to be yourself, then you should not feel obligated to be something else.
