Today, me and Uber Christian played leapfrog. I've never really talked to him about what he thinks about my gayness before, and so it's a relief that he's not like this one guy who today just said "GAY!" as I walked by then ran away.
We're supposed to go to Mcdonald's tomorrow for a school orchestra thing. I really don't wanna go, because it's long, I'll miss swimming, which seriously causes me extreme emotional distress (I wish I could always be swimming. I'm always so happy there), and I'll have to eat nasty fatty Mcdonald's food. Bad and bad for you.
Now, to the point of this journal entry. Do you think it would be better if everyone had their sexuality, whatever it may be, right on their forehead for everyone to see?
Back when racism was in style, everyone knew you were black. Here, the good part is that people generally only know if you want them too. The bad part is you have to go through the stress of coming out, because the message is greatly intensified if it's dramatized.
People wouldn't react to someone they knew were gay on sight as they would to someone who has a long, overly dramatized coming out.

I think it shouldn't be.
I think it shouldn't be. Because then there'd just be more hate.
And I hate hate ;D

Sometimes I like to sit at night and stare at the lamppost because it's the brightest thing in my life...
I think it would be awesome.
I think it would be awesome. I love sharing my biness. Also it would help if they had subtitles like "I think redheads are hot".

If they did, I hope it would
If they did, I hope it would be erasable. Sexualities and sexual preferences can change over time. My neighbors are an elderly lesbian couple. The thing is, both of them were married, had kids, and were completely straight. Then they both went through bad divorces, found each other, and the rest is history.
Human sexuality is a very flexible thing. Just because I'm gay doesn't mean I will never fall in love with a woman. If I love men my entire life and then meet my soulmate in a woman, I will not let something like her gender get in my way.
This whole thing also depends on what you mean by sexuality. Do you define it strictly as you who lust after? Who you love?
Sorry, I kind of went off on a tangent :P
I kinda meant...
That it would automatically change with your preferences. Sorry for not making it clear.

Inferences are not always reliable
The thing is, both of them were married, had kids, and were completely straight.
My suspicion is that they desperately wanted to be straight so as not to suffer society's ostracism. This can probably never be known for sure!
Human sexuality is a very flexible thing.
If "flexible" also means "malleable", this comes very close to the presumed philosophy of Exodus.
