Sexuality is not a Choice. Don't choose it for others

I know have not made any new post recently. Now I have something that I really want to address. Please enjoy, thank you.

For most people who watch my Youtube, and for those that I am friends with know that I do not identify as straight. What I am saying is I am attracted to both men and women. To be gay or bi is not a choice. There are many meanings to the word gay. The one I am talking about is this. “pertaining to, or exhibiting sexual desire or behavior directed toward a person or persons of one's own sex; homosexual: a gay couple.” We do not choose our sexuality.

I met this man by the name of AJ Frank at my job. His full name is not going to be used. This is me trying to be nice. He seemed like an alright guy at first. After hanging out with him twice I figured out how much of an ignorant person he is. Normally I would not put peoples names in like this, but I feel like it was needed. Anyway he mentioned how sexuality is a choice. He said he could prove it because his sisters were both with someone of the samesex and someone of the different sex. I guess one was lesbian and then she found that the could like guys, and the other sister was straight and she found that she liked girls. First of all they did not make that choice. You cannot help who you are attracted to. Laci Green in her Homosexuality and Bi sexual videos make it clear that sexuality is fluid. There is science indicating that you are born with your sexuality. For example, I have a brother that may or may not like men. I have an Aunt that is married to a man, and she still identifies with being bi sexual. My dad, when he was alive, admitted to me that he was attracted to men. He was bi, but he was attracted to women more. According to For the Bible Tells Me so, if you are a boy, depending on your birth order you are more likely to be gay. What that part of the documentary is talking about, is that if you are the youngest son and you have a few brothers before you, your chance of being gay goes up quite a bit. The percentages are between 28%-48%. The brothers indeed in fact have to be from the same mother. However, this study does not have an effect on females at all. When a woman is pregnant and its a boy her body thinks of it as a foreign object nonetheless her body tries to feminize it. The woman’s body is able to do this better with each passing son. However, everyone who is a gay male isn’t gay because of this. There are other factors with our genetics.

To this man facts did not matter. I told him to lose my number. He did not do such a thing. AJ kept texting me. He even thought it was funny to call my a bra size. I personally found that to be very sexist. Going further he stopped texting me for awhile. That was when I thought he forgot about me. Then today he tries to talk to me, and I told him again that just because his sisters are a way does not mean that it is a choice. They didn’t choose it. Anyway going on I told him that if he wanted to talk to me that he should do some research and watch some Laci Green videos. That was when I hung up. After that he started to text me. By the end of it he said that I knew nothing. He said “You know nothing Lina.” That made me laugh, because I naturally thought of Jon Snow. That is for anyone who is a Game Of Thrones fan. If anyone knows me, they know that I am a Gay Rights activist. This is what I research. I have dedicated my life to this cause. Not to mention It has been a topic that I have been researching for my undergrad thesis paper. It’s not my official subject yet. Going further, I have been studying anything pertaining to sexuality. I did not want to be attracted to both genders when I first figured it out. Most people don’t because there is this stigma behind it. People are so negative when it comes to people not being straight. Researching helped me become comfortable with who I was.

#Doyou

I have known for a while that everyone is not going to like you. People who are supposed to be your friends will sometimes turn on you. So I decided to do something. I am doing something called #Doyou. That is where you take a picture of yourself, and then go onto twitter use the #Doyou. You also want the picture attached along with that as well. I love myself and I want to see everyone else who loves themselves as well. In the picture wear something that makes you feel attractive, that makes you feel like you are the best you. I like feeling the best me everyday so I wear a flannel styled over shirt. It doesn't matter who you are as long as you are the best you. Also watch my video that goes a long with it.

Lifting Gay Ban in South Dakota?

In the state that I live in there is currently a gay marriage ban. A group of people is taking this to a higher court. In other words if this all works out South Dakota could be the next state to have Gay marriage. All I have to say is THAT IT IS ABOUT TIME! I am tired of people thinking that they have a say who other people marry. If you don't believe in gay marriage, then don't have one. Stop trying to push your beliefs on me. I also don't see why it should be a big deal if someone is gay or not. Why is it called coming out? It should be just a part of you. People make that sort of thing all about who a person is. I a female, and I chose to not identify with a sexual orientation. I have come to learn that I just like people. Honestly I myself am tired of people casting judgement on other people because of who they like. It is the new civil rights movement. We are more than this, and I am disappointed in people in this country. Anyway I remember telling my mom a really long time ago that I didn't just like boys, and she gave me this whole speech that she didn't want to see it, and that if I was with a girl that I have to keep it to myself. I told her "Listen, I am not going to hide who I am to you. If you don't like that part of my life you have a choice. You can be a good parent and love all of me or you can get the fuck out of my life." I was happy that I was able to say that. That was the thing that did it for me. This was the start of me not putting up with my mother's crap anymore. Anyway if you are a different are not straight I have an idea of how you feel from time to time from my own experiences. I will continue to fight for my rights and yours. Also one day there will be a day where we can look back and say "remember when orientation was a big deal?" One day, one day...

Millennial and why it is the best generation

If you were born between 1980 and 2000 you are a millennial. In other words if you are between the ages of 14 and 34 you are in this group. Older people give millennials a bad name. We are told that we are lazy and dumb, and that we doomed the word we live in. To that I say. Shut up and do some research. The generation I was born in is in fact the most intelligent by far. The reasoning behind that is said because society pushed so many of us to go to college to "make something of ourselves". With so many of us going to college the job market is also another factor. I am a writer, and yet I work at a thrift store. The endgame for me (or so I am told) is Starbucks. That joke is kind of true. With so many well educated people that are venturing off into the world, that makes a high school degree look like nothing. Yes my generation is the generation that is going to change the world. I don't mean to pick on the Baby Boomers, but the way they treated the world makes me give hope for us. The reasoning for that is with how the United States is being ran today. Equality is still not being reached. The way to make it attainable is to out live the people who are ignorant, and now I am going onto climate change. Global Warming is a thing people, whether we want to admit to it or not. Oh and another thing to the people who believe in Trickle Down economics, it does not work. Our country is proof of that. That rich just keep getting richer while the poor are stuck in shitty jobs that get them nowhere in life because we have been lied to. Anyway my generation is the best so far, and I have a feeling that we are going to change the world. Not to mention that the oldest Millennial is able to run for president in out country. Our day is coming soon.

Women's rights

Wow another blog, I am on fire. Anyway so I was watching yet another video. This one was on women's rights. Yes isn't that insane that I still have to say women's rights? Anyway women still get paid less than men. That is so terrible! I have even noticed it and this whole sex discrimination is real. Why are women treated lesser than men? It seems like that is what our country was founded on. Our country was founded on this idea of a greater sex. The constitution is even written that way. Back in 1923 there was something called the ERA, and that was almost ratified, but it needed 3 more states. It ended up not passing. Please to the women who read this... Hell to the men that read this. To everyone that reads this. Speak up against this. We are all human and we deserve the same equal rights! I hate being only seen for what gender I am. Make everyone equal.

Old School Sesame Street was the best...

Today has been a pretty chill day. Anyway I was just watching the Fine Bros Youtubers react and they where talking about old school Sesame Street. I am talking about 1970's. The stuff that was shown was just amazing. The jokes that they had were borderline adult humor. They had a muppet in a trench coat offering O's, and Kermit was yelling at Cookie Monster and making him cry. Then he was alright again, and then he started yelling at Cookie again. That is something that I would enjoy watching. After that I went on Netflix to see if they had the old school episodes, and they so totally do. I think that just made my night. I will have something to do tonight. Today people are so paranoid of what kids watched. When I was growing up I watched some of the most messed up animes. Personally I don't think I was hurt too much. Maybe Sesame Street back then was for a different audience. I am not going to think so much on it, but as for someone that was watching South Park at age 3. There could always be something worse. The kind of parents that shelter their kids annoy me. When their kids get out into the real world they are going to be lost. I mean it isn't just TV shows it is with a lot of things. Kids are going to venture off and do what they want to do at some point in their lives. They should know that there are some pretty bad people out there. I am taking this from what I have seen. Sometimes I feel bad for my friend that were sheltered. Then again they had parents who loved them so there are things...

Human rights, and positive vibes

I have been doing some thinking, and I realized that a lot has changed with myself. A lot has changed even from a year ago. Gay rights has always been a strong passion of mine, and it still is. I just don't find a need to be a part of a club anymore. For others I can see it yes, but for me? I fight for gay rights and I will do so with every fiber of my being. There are also other things that I have been fighting for as well. Higher wages for example is something that I have been focused on. It's hard living on $7.25 an hour. That is not much at all. I feel like it is insulting for people. Going back to having a GSA. I am all for a GSA, but personally I do not need the support anymore. With myself I am comfortable, and I love myself. I feel like a GSA is for people who have nowhere else to go and need to be with people who are understanding of what they are going through. I have always been the type of person who is easy to talk to and understanding, but if that is not enough then I suggest going to that group. Now that I know that part of myself I have been focusing on other noble pursuits. Hunger is something else that I find to be something that should not be there. I feel like with having low wages there is going to be more hunger and more welfare. It is a correlation. I fight for human rights in general. I am a human rights activist. That is me though. I feel like what you put into the world that it comes right back to you. By putting good into the world good can came back to you. That idea is just a really neat idea that I had a conversation with a new friend while sipping some Rolling Rock.
