Gay Pride

My brother is gay. And I'm damn proud of him. The whole family doesn't have any problem with my brother being gay. Apparently, the world have.

We love watching Project Runway and America's Next Top Model. We love commenting on gowns, designers and beauty pageants. He's the best brother you could have. He adores me and loves me to death. I love him more than my life! I could always count on him. Though I'm eleven years older than him, we have a lot in common.

My heart broke when I was giving him a pep talk the other night. Things like "be proud of who you are", "stand up for yourself", etc were said. And he told me, it's easy for you to say… you don't get teased everyday, no one taunts you, you dont worry about acceptance…

He is a cool guy. A very loving son, very cheerful, very friendly guy. He doesnt deserve to be treated that way.

*Actually, I don't know how to write my feelings regarding this. Im still sad and worried for my brother. I have high respect for gay people. Most of my friends are gay. I guess i just wanted to say that underneath that cheery facade of gay people, lies a son, a friend, a brother just like everyone else. No one should tease or taunt them. It hurts.
