LGBT-PA

Day 1 - Your sexual orientation or gender identity. Be creative in your definition.

I identify as lesbian.  I came out at bisexual a few years ago, but realized I was gay only this year.  The more and more time went along I knew that I wasn’t attracted to men in the same way that I was women.  So, I am attracted to women.  I think that some men are attractive, but wouldn’t want to sleep with them. 

What would you do???

Lets say your child came to you and said Mom I’m Gay, would you
throw the Bible in their face and tell them they were going to Hell?
Would you try and “turn” them back to a straight person?
Would you be ashamed of the child you gave birth too and raised and wonder where you went wrong? Or would you be the parent that would accept your child for they way the were born? Being Gay is not a disease that can be cured, and quoting scriptures from the Bible will not change a persons orientation. Just because a person is Gay does not mean they will automatically go to Hell. If A Hell exists. If there is really a higher power, I am positive that He/She would love and not judge a person based on who they love. I am so sick of people that think that Gay people are sick and perverted. I am a Very Proud Mom of a Gay child. I love my child for who she is, she has a heart of gold and would help anyone she could. I’m thinking God would have changed with the times and has stepped into the 21st century. People are people, we don’t need labels to define ourselves. And as far as God goes, He would not turn my daughter away from Heaven just because she is different. This is my opinion.
