And I really wish I weren't preaching to the converted here. I need more intolerant friends, just so I can have the pleasure of winning them over to the side of light and sweetness. Youse guys are too nice. *pretends to scowl*

(Of course, I'd probably drive them, and myself, batty first, but that's not the point)

Edit: It's apparently originally from here.

Man, I'm tired. I must have what Ana had. *falls asleep*

The article emotionally doesn't work for me. I approve of its message, but it just doesn't work emotionally, because I have trouble remembering that I'm straight. I'm too used to stories where the main character is male, so being attracted to men would be homosexual. And I don't think I self-identify as female. I just don't view myself with gender. Gender isn't an attribute that is part of my self-identity, it is an attribute that I know to mention on forms and such and that society gave me - like being Caucasion/white. It's just one of those things I was told I am and so when people ask that's what I say I am. But really, I'm just a person. And I'm attracted to men. Which means I get called straight, which is easier so hey win for me. But I'm just a person who is attracted to men.

ummm ok. I could have written that whole long story in one sentence - imagine if everyone was gay and straight people were the odd ones out.

Sorry, it didn't work for me on any sort of emotional or literary level...
