yeah.
someone has just annoyed me lately, so retreating out and decided to put my frustration to something productive.
writing to a senate inquiry to marriage equality in this country.
probably shabby. will work a few more minutes. just had to vent annoyance/ frustration.
I wish for this this discrimination to end.
legally there are thankfully only a few pieces of legal discrimination against the LGBTI community.
Because hopefully it will begin the end of discrimination of LBGTI people within the Australian community.
I grew up so scared and terrifed of who I was.
I thought I was wrong, that I was nothing, nothing to be proud of, or to be.
Since then, I have been many things.
I have been an Australian Swimming Champion, I have topped scores in my studies across my state for Philosophy, English and Ancient Civilizations in my College years.
I continue to do so in my University years.
I ask you, how you under what possible moral justification are allowing someone who has murdered another, who has belittled or committed crimes against humanity,
such a basic human right that you will not grant me?
Who are you to say that I am a lesser citizen and do not deserve such a basic legal right I ask you?
Do not even think you can.
That is what I have spent so many years studying.
Trying to figure out why people hate me so much, merely for who I am, before they no what I am like, what I have done, even before they have spoken to me.
I want this legal discrimination to end, and hopefully, it will end so much hate.
To those of you who believe it is a bad thing,
fine. You are entitled to your beliefs, you opinions and hate, prejudice and bigotry.
but no, there is no way you can morally justify how your beliefs, that should deprive me of such a right, any right, when I have done ought wrong but be who I am.
argh. I do not writing such things, and I hate that I sound so prideful, but sometimes you have to gain someone's respect quickly for your words to have any weight or influence.
oh well. if the australian government doesn't do something soon, so be it. I have no reason to stay in a country that values hate and prejudice and ignore what is right and not always easy.
