Reply #9: I think outing is ALWAYS a bad thing

[JuniperLea]

It's like pointing the finger and saying, neener neener, you're gay! Like it's a bad thing. And the "bad thing" feeling grows and grows and then people get the idea that it's a good thing to use a person's sexuality against them.

But hey, I'm a straight woman... what the hell do I know... :sarcasm: Sorry, I've had this argument before and was put down and told I didn't know shit about it because I'm a straight woman. Bullshit.

I have a soft spot in my heart for gay people. For about 10 years, until they both died of AIDS, my bosses and my very best friends in the whole world were gay. I feel like I need to carry the torch for them whenever I can. They were brilliant men with giant hearts of gold.
