I think as a whole meaning possibly the gay community just needs to keep loving.. people will always have something to say or pessimistic mentalities.. or finding newer and creative ways to make someone feel not accepted.. or even try gaslighting.. best thing that can be done.. is creating a bond with healthy people.. surrounding ourselves around support and love.. and those people no matter what may never come around or accept gay.. because they want to be glued to comfortability and what they know.. because if they change they will realize how many people they have hurt and they might not be able to handle that pain.. so just live.. love.. pick each other up... and build a healthy community that supports what we want to see in the world .. eventually the world may come around.. sometimes they won't... and thats okay.. just wish they didn't have to show hate or be violent to something they don't understand
