I know a guy who just told someone I presume he trusted that he was bi-sexual. Now the whole school knows! And people are saying stupid comments about him, saying that they now do not care about him. I mean they liked him before this? It takes a lot of courage to tell someone that. I mean hes a really nice guy whos really cool. I haven't seen him at school almost a week now. I mean we wheren't exactly friends but its not fair that just because some perfers something different they shouldn't be ridicuald. I know its going to take time for people to change but it really upsets me to see him avoid everyone and to put his life on hold and to hide from people! I say fuck them and live your life!!! I was also talking to this really nice guy today about relgion and homosexuality. And he said it was wrong and well I told him that just because someone prefers the oppiste sex doesn't mean they aren't intitled to love! What if your life partner the love of your life was ripped away from you? What if you where judge for loving someone? I mean can't people look at it from someone else shoes? But this guy actually considered my point of view! Wow this is a first for me! Its not fair! I just wish that guy would come back to school and show everyone he won't let them bring him down! I'll defend him till the day I die! I'll defend anyone who is judged in away which is unfair! This guy has a lot of courage and I respect him for that so much! Only if people wheren't so blind and jugemental!
Ridiculed for sexual preferance, absurd? Try being ridiculed for being true to your gender identity... I never told anybody that I was omnisexual, because they never asked. However, my gender identity... well, it's hard not to let people know about that. I only have to be seen for people to know that...
What is omnisexual? And about the guy, I feel sorry for him. It's like a double punch: your trust is abused, and your reputation suffers. If you two know each other, you should take him aside and say something supportive. People go out of their way to ridicule him, so you may want to consider going out of your way to be nice to him.
Best bet is to act like a complete douchebag beforehand, and then stop when you come out, so people think you're a better person for it. That's what I did. But I'm surprised that people are being so blatantly homophobic about it. Normally people come up with some non-gay excuse why they can't possibly stand too close to you or use your cutlery.
If it had been intentional it would've been even better. I only told a few close friends, and just decided that from then on, if anyone asked I would tell them. That was better in a lot of ways, because it meant that people couldn't ever accuse me of ramming it down their throats (whereas these days that's practically all I do). And incidentally, I went to an all boys school. Never let anyone kid you that those places are full of homos. There were some real jerks there who never shut up about it. They were easy enough to avoid, mind.
This is really tough thing for me to handle because,it has nothing to do with me, but I can't stand racisim and dicrimanation against people. It gets under my skin it really pisses me off. I hope he comes back monday!!! And if anyone one bugs him,im just going to freak. I live in the most suburban redneck place I have ever incountered! Hopefully people get over it!
I'm currently in my senior year of high school, and began publicly transitioning when this year started. It really depends on where you live. And henry, omnisexual basically means that I do not care about someone's gender/sex/whatever; I just care about who they are as a person.
The prefix "omni" is latin and typically translates to "being all." In the case of omnisexual, it's being attracted to somebody based upon who they are. I'm actually a MtF transsexual... at least, that's what I am if you like to use labels. I'm just a plain old girl, really.
it is hard and being outed when your not ready is even harder what i did was come out fast and hard. i knew anything that anyone coould call me and was well informed about the local gay community before i came out and when i did i was rainbow magee i'm sorry about what happened to the guy but if your close to him you need to be there for him b/c it is the times that he is going through that cause homsexual suicide/druguse to skyrocket good luck i hope that he has some kind of support
Well He came back to school today. And he said he wasn't bi-sexual. He said he was tryin to piss off one of his friends becuase he is a homofob. So I'm going to take his word for it, and hopefully people will as well.
