In recent months I've become more and more involved with the fight for gay and transgender rights... yesterday I was rendered distraught by this video and driven to find some way- some way to help the cause... And so I found the All-Out movement, which is a large website/database of GBLT-rights causes and news items (from what I understand)...
(On a side note, if you haven't heard, recently Marriage Equality became law in France- HOORAY!!! ^o^)
I sent links out to all my family members and friends...
Here's what I want to share though: Just today I got a few messages back...
Dear Grandson, I agree with you. There should be equality for all regardless of how they live their lives. I have always felt that way. The USA should stand for liberty and the pursuit of happiness and should not be hindered. If you have other messages please send them to me. Lovel Your grandma
Son, I believe that everyone should be free to be who they are - and be accepted for who they are. Equality, dignity, acceptance and self-respect are worth fighting for. I hope that you feel free to be who you are. I love you. Dad
I feel so emotional right now... these are people I've never discussed my sexuality with for fear of being rejected or treated differently...
I love them all so much. >##<
