I spent the day thinking about how to make the world a better place. I think I got something this time.
Three day fundraiser "Shirts and Skirts":
-First day girls wear guy clothes
-Second day guys wear girls clothes
-Third day both genders wear anything
-Donations come from internet, buying shirts and skirts fundraising merchandise. Donations positive past the overhead will all go to the aids cure.
I made this three day fundraiser to bring up an issue we are seeing more and more. A mental condition is to hard a word to say what I have, because I just see it as something I am. This is how I think and it can't be prevented. Now I know you think I made this day to say the issue of gay rights and all that comes with it, but that is not so. You do not wear the others clothes to find out why a gay person feels they are inside, but you wear it to literally be in someone else's shoes.
My “condition” is the irrational fear of a person or persons that are attracted to the same sex, regardless of which. I'm not asking you to agree with my life choices, nor am I challenging yours. I started this fundraiser to not just bring up the issue that homophobics are looked down upon by gay activists, but for me to start the first steps, by a homophobic person to raise funds for the homosexuals. So if you step into my shoes, you see that if we want equality, that's great. Shunning those who feel different is exactly what they did to you to cause this. Let us stop this vicious cycle, use our human empathy to realize, we are all the same, in different ways. If you don't tolerate the ones who don’t tolerate, you yourself become the evil you hate. I'll put a good Jesus quote here, because that guy is on the right track, regardless of what you believe in.
Polishing this up is required. My hope is to make a fundraiser website by next year, a YouTube video explaining the whole thing, and all the maclab students working together to design the whole process. Think big, no?
