Bridegroom

I want to write a bit more about the post from yesterday about gay rights. Here's the thing, I may not be the smartest, brightest or happiest person out there, I care for many but I may not always show it in a way that others want me to and I may not know very much about how things work out in the world, but here is what I do know; and that is that love is love, no matter race, age or gender. Truth is, that we all have stereotypes, even though I hate to admit it, I am no better than anyone else. But I do not see others as labels, I don't point out fat or skinny, black or white, girl or boy and maybe that is what bisexual means but again, why do I need to label that?

I got this comment on my post about Ellen Page;

Here is my answer: so what if I am? Would that be the only thing that would define me? Because let me tell you, that there is so much more to me than my sexuality. But to answer the question the way you want me to, yes, I am in a way, but I thinks it is more to the bisexual side.

Yesterday, I was talking to Jesper and he told me to watch a documentary called Bridegroom. His exact words however were "you will cry!" and I was kind off laughing it off thinking that there isn't any movie I haven't cried too. So I watched it and oh.my.god, I had to pause the documentary in the middle because I couldn't hear what they were saying because my sobs were too loud. It kept me up all night and I have been thinking about it all day. It is about this guy called Shane who grew up in a small town in the United States, and as he became a teenager, he realized that he was gay which led to him being not only bullied by his classmates but he wasn't allowed to come to any school events anymore. So after he graduated, he drove down to LA to start a new life, and that was when he met Tom. An entertainer from a small town and almost at once did flowers bloom and they fell in love. Throughout their relationship they struggled with family members not accepting etc, but they held together for 6 years until Tom fell off the roof and died in 2011 leaving Shane heartbroken and alone. Shane later got threats from Tom's family saying that they will attack him if he comes to the funeral. Imagine not being able to go to the love of your lives funeral because of ignorance and hatred? The story completely broke me apart and I have been emotional all day. And for this I blame my good friend Jesper. Anyway, its a really touching, beautiful love story and I highly recommend it, but not without lots and lots of tissues. 

Here is the trailer, watch it!!!!

And finally, I'd like to express my appreciation for the organasations for LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) and say that I think their work is absolutly amazing and that I truly believe that they are making this world a better place by helping those who are in need.
