at some point in our lives someone is in
minds like us we all know that they
could like us they couldn’t like us for
any reason like for the way we dress or
the way we act for our opinions maybe
but sometimes someone won’t like us
based on our ace or our sexuality or
agender and this isn’t fair
someone determining things about you
based on a single aspect of you is
unfair but these disliking x’ can become
something much more major these
disliking x’ can go into work people
become excluded from things assaulted
for what for what they love or for the
color of their skin 15 43% of gay people
have experienced some form of
discrimination in a workplace job
applicants with black sounding names are
less likely to be called back for an
interview than a white sounding
countable women most often go into jobs
are expected of them people who are part
of these communities aren’t allowed to
work based on something that shouldn’t
even affect their work ethic and it’s so
unfair and makes me mad when someone is
told they matter less for something that
isn’t wrong and something they can’t
help shamed for being who they are every
day adults and children become more
self-conscious about these traits they
may find in themselves not allowed to be
themselves because they’re scared of the
effects it might have in their lives not
allowed to be themselves because it
might make other people uncomfortable
it’s not fair for like to have been
labeled and to get a reputation and an
expectation based on for what you are
rather than who you are this
discrimination can have a very bad
impact members of the lgbtq+ community
twice as likely to commit to attempt
suicide compared to someone whose head
actual people from a black ethnicity or
a minority is more likely to be
diagnosed with a mental health issue
this can be traced back to the
discrimination they face the treatment
they may receive affects them both
socially and mentally and it isn’t just
to suffer for something that isn’t even
wrong for years and years people fought
for what is right to be accepted by
society gay people gay marriage is now
legal eyes din over 20 countries and
whilst this is an improvement there’s
still room for so much more black people
fought for freedom rights they deserve
but still improvements to be made lgbtq+
relationships and characters in modern
media are so important as I represented
now it gives them something they can
relate to if they identify this way all
this because people know that we are all
human beings and we all deserve equal
treatment
what should it matter if someone’s gay
or straight or black or white or a man
or a woman we’re all people
we all deserve the chance to be treated
fairly and not to be judged before there
truly long truly known doesn’t everyone
deserve a good life

given people in sharing that passion
