Tragedy

"This latest string of suicides is an indication of how society is accepting our young people into this world. Online bullying and ignorance is taking lives and something must be done to make it stop. We have to educate society to be more accepting and compassionate to our childrens needs. The education needs to start with parents not teaching their children to hate and be callous to others differences. We have a long way to go to make our society a more accepting and safe place. There are many great organizations like The Trevor Project to help kids in need and we need to educate kids and adults to see there is a place to go and get help and guidance. More visibility is also needed in front of the right demographic groups."

At least you have tried/are trying. That in and of itself is very commendable.

Could very well be that despite all the gains made in the area of GLBT, the world is still not ready. The media/sport could be looking for a "better"/more popular version of you. If and when it does, we/you can look back and say/think, 'That should have been me.'

I always look forward to your blogs or any new information on your website.
