seperate but equal?

I know this is kind of old, but I fucking hate Prop 8. Even though i'm not even American. I came across some Prop 8 propaganda and i was like... "What the actual fuck?" Obama says that gay people are given equal rights but not special rights. And by special rights he pretty much means marriage. So, I wanna ask this. Is marriage a special right for straight couples then? If you call it such a special thing then you're obviously not giving gay people equal rights because they can't experience what straight people can experience. This topic angers me to the capacity of my hairline. Like I said in my last blog. WE ARE ALL PEOPLE. Treat humans as humans. I don't care how cool Obama is, what he said was fucked up. Same with every other major politician in this English speaking world. And I dont want to be stereotypical and judgemental, those are my least favourite things to be and i try my absolute best not to be like that. But like i said, that doesnt mean that nothing pisses me off! Isn't it funny that it's usually religious people that have a propblem with homosexuality? That every politician pretty much declines gay marriage because of some religious discourse? Doesnt this just sound the same as the civil rights movement when blacks werent able to vote or even enter someones house through the front door? And the only jobs they ever had was to be a slave, servant or some kind of job that would only benefit anyone but themselves? Why can't people just see that gays and lesbians are only different by the sheer fact that they are attracted to the same sex. If religion never existed, I dont think this would be that much of a problem now would it? America is supposed to be a free country, is it not? Yet it is a "free" country dominated by the ideas of a conservative Christian view. "Oh, the freedom, yippee". Fuck off. They have no right to judge eachother. In their eyes, the only person who could judge was Christ himself and he did not. So why are these people thinking like this, why are they judging when they are in no position to judge? Proposition 8 says that gays are not losing any rights or privelidges because of no gay marriage. How aren't they? They are losing the right to marry as American citizens and as HUMANS. How can you be a free country when you take the rights away from one of YOUR people? Its like dehumanizing them because they are simply GAY. It shouldnt even be called GAY and STRAIGHT. There shouldnt be any different apart from people accepting that they like something other then they do themselves. Then it comes to this aswell, alot of those macho HOMOPHOBIC guys who think theyre so tough because they can degrade women yet they can hate homosexuals and still be seen as a good person, who the fuck do they think they are, and alot of those pretty preppy HOMOPHOBIC girls think that every lesbian girl is just gross and it going to hit on every girl they come in contact with. How close minded. What if that lesbian girl thinks you're ugly? How are you gonna feel then? Guys think that when girls kiss eachother its so hot and theres nothing wrong with it because its just like, so not gay at all and everything. But then when you mention the sole idea of boys being homosexual, not even guy on guy action, just gay attraction, they have a massive winge and talk about how gross it is and how wrong it is and how being a "real man" is so much better. What a fucked up double standard don't you think? So I leave you with this. In any country, in any soceity wether your friend, co-worker or client is gay, in any household wether your child, mother, father, sister, brother happens to be GAY. Just think about it, who am I to judge if even Christ himself did not? Who am I to judge if I am no different to you and do not like to be judged for my differences myself? Who am I to judge when at the end of the day, we are all the same. When we are stripped bare of our superficial lifestyles and aesthetics. We are all different, but we are all human.

I know this was kind of a random rant but it needed to be said.

it's aimi bitch.

There are three things that you never call me; Judgemental, Ignorant and Immature. Or ugly, but that's a whole different topic (: I spent 10 days at a religious camp, which my family does every year. I'm supposed to enjoy it, but this time i didnt. I mean, hanging out with my friends was good but I missed my boyfriend too fucking much. There was also another thing, I got the rude awakening aboout religion. I had known it for a long time, but this camp just re enforced it for me. Religion to me is something that has no tolerance of self expression other than what religious people think is the 'norm'. It makes me sick. Growing up in an SDA family i was taught the ways of religion as i would have been. I have no resentment towards my mother though, only to religion. Religion is life controlling, you pretty much can't make decisions for yourself or express yourself aesthetically, verbally or even physically. So, you know, fuck that. They say come as you are, but they really mean come as you are if you meet this criteria. I have alot more to say but i dont know if your brain or my flicking fingers can take it. But i'll have you know that not all religious people are like that. Some are very open minded and accepting of different people, and i respect them. But, the thing is, the way that those "different" people are is still not "right" to them. But then again what is really right? Or normal? Or even good for that matter? Nothing is normal. There is no such thing as normal. Normal does not exist. Before i came to my senses about religion i was a rather judgemental person because i wasn't open minded. But now i am, i accept humans as humans and treat humans as humans, unless of course theyre dickheads but then there's the obvious. I have Muslim friends, Satanic friends, Athiest friends, Chrtistian friends, Wiccan friends. I respect their views and beliefs. I don't want to bash them with my ideas because they don't do it to me. Now, i sound all self righteous and shit but i'm just saying, reason number one for not calling me judgemental? Because i'm not. I have no right to judge anyone, i mean, look at the person I am. I'm not perfect, who am I to judge? I know for a fact that on the surface I come across as an intimidating nasty person, i may even seem up myself. But i love getting judgemental looks to be honest. Because I can't wait until those people get to know me if they ever do and become enlightened, yes, enlightened. I've wasted enough time trying to be what everyone wants, its their turn now. But even if they don't get to know me, its funny anyway. But hey, i'm not judging. There is a different between thoughtful mocking and judging. And a different between judging and having an opinion when it is open to be given. So don't give me any bullshit about being judgemental when i'm just giving an opinion. You're smart enough to know the difference aren't you? But we're all just the same inside. When it all comes down to it we're all the same no matter how different we are. We cry, we laugh, we hurt, we smile, we fall in love and we fall to pieces. The sight of your naked eye isnt even the mere surface of who we are.

I'm fifteen years old. But in my lifetime, i'd probably surprise you with how much i know or even how far my vocabulary stretches. Or my fucked up points of view for that matter. Or the fact that I actually know what i'm talking about half the time. Or that fact that I am very good at sarcasm. I'm smart, but not in the way you expect me to be. I'm open minded, but that doesnt mean that i dont get pissed off. I'm mature, but i'm fucking fifteen years old. Perhaps there's a different between my life and yours, perhaps i've been through more or less than you have, perhaps i sometimes have a valid point to make. Oh, but wait, i'm fifteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen. Yeah, i am. So? Geez if i were famous you'd take me seriously, just because my word aint out there. I don't like to fight, but i can put up a good one verbally, if you were to throw a punch at me i'd probably snap and die. My tongue is my weapon.

I'm blank to what i wanna say now, i'll probably winge about it in my next post.
