a b o u t:

A huge thanks to all of you who have commented and :+fav:ed this! I am honored by the response I've gotten on this!!

Thanks to =GibbyGibson, and her tutorial. [link]

This deviation is not meant to be offensive to anyone, and the fact that it says "
straight artists" is explained below.

Where I live, people are narrow minded. If you support the fight for gay rights, that synonymous with being gay. That's just the way things work here, as I have noticed during the promotion of my neverending quest for total equality of all people. (...No matter skin-colour, sexual orientation, religion... I guess you've heard it all before. I guess I could call myself an idealist.) I think that conscious opinions and awareness is just like a cold; contagious.

Thing is; the people I've talked with that support the fight for gay rights have really thought it all through, can provide reasons for their opinions and... Well. I have yet to meet a person that supports gay rights "...Just 'cause." Even though it makes more sense (in my opinion) to support a group of people for no obvious reason than to be against them. That might just be my forced-positive-attitude talking, but think about it?

After spending two hours in a discussion-class where I was the only one supporting the rights of homosexuals, (One tiny-teenage girl against 26 raging, narrow minded monster-kids. Imagine.) almost laughing out loud when hearing their arguments, I think it's tragic that so many people dislike/hate/even-worse gay human beings without even being able to explain why.

The purpose of this stamp is simply to say that you don't have to be black to be against discrimination of the black people, you don't have to be Jewish to disapprove of Hitler, and you do certainly not have to be gay to support gay rights.

I know bringing Hitler up is a cheap trick, please excuse my desperation. I just really care for this matter.
