I received an email today from Change.org, which in case you don't know its a a page where people can start petitions for something they really care about and have people in the U.S. sign them. So, I got this e-mail, about 5 minutes ago when I got home, and what I read shock me immensely.
Apple,Inc. released an application to "cure" gay people! And my reaction was precisely WTF????? Basically this group of crazy bible huggers decided to launched an app with Apple that promised to cure gay people and it's directed especially towards kids. They are saying parents should have their kids use the application in an attempt to make them straight. They say the point is to give kids a "freedom from homosexuality"... as if!
First of all, its already been scientifically proven that homosexuals are, usually, born that way. And even if they weren't it's their choice to make! And truth is I believe love has no gender. Love is love... lust is lust, sex is awesome and seriously: don't ever reject something you've never tried simply because you don't understand it. I think as humans we are born with the capacity to love any gender. We are born in that way bisexual. Our life, our experiences, our tastes its what ultimately defines us. So a teenager struggling with his/her sexuality is bound to try both before finding the one he/she likes the most, or simply know which one they like just by their feelings. And it's not wrong and it's not dirty... it simply IS.
This campaign/app is sending the wrong message. It's targeting kids that are struggling with their sexuality, a thing that we all go through no matter how straight we turn out to be, and bringing back the whole "your going to hell for being gay thing"! The struggling is hard enough... life is hard enough without having a bunch of fanatics trying to brain wash you in your own goddamn phone!
And then Apple actually gave it FOUR freaking stars!!! Meaning it's not offensive, when it seriously IS! So, what happened? People started a petition!! Which I signed, and if I could would sign over and over again. This is, simply put, a hate campaign againts LGBT people, and so people decided it wasn't going to be ignored.
"This is a double standard that has the potential for devastating consequences. Apple needs to be told, loud and clear, that this is unacceptable." [The West Australian]
So I'm asking you, whoever you might be, to sign the petition. Because people should have the choice of loving, liking or fucking however they like, and because at the end it's their decision, their life, their happiness... So sign, sign now because it matters... because as human beings who we are, who our kids, our brothers, our friends are matters! Defend their rights!
