You are correct. My LGBTQ agenda is real.
I’ve often attempted to argue against the notion of a so-called gay agenda, which you believe is aimed at undermining the moral structure of our society. You consider this agenda sinful, and at times more perilous than acts of terrorism. You seem to think that my right to marry my same-sex partner detracts from the sanctity of your own marriage.
While I don’t share your perspective, I acknowledge that you have a point: the gay agenda does indeed exist. You, the devout Christians and staunch heterosexuals, who readily express your disdain for my “lifestyle” are right. Our objective is to foster cultural acceptance and equal rights, demonstrating that gay lives are just as ordinary as straight lives.
We will leverage commercials, animated films, protests, pride events, weddings, and even moments of mourning to affirm our normalcy. However, I want to be clear — I would never claim that being gay is the same as being straight. Perhaps love is what truly sets us apart.
The Experience of Love
Do you recall that exhilarating feeling when you first fell in love? The butterflies, the anxiety of confessing your feelings, the joy and heartbreak that accompany those early moments? I know that feeling well. When I fell for another woman, I kept it hidden, fearing rejection from my family and friends. I worried that the girl I liked, who I was certain felt the same, would distance herself out of fear.
Instead of mustering the courage for a tender moment, I became physically ill with anxiety. In a moment that could have jeopardized our friendship, I found the bravery to lean my leg against hers while watching a movie. To my surprise, she didn’t pull away. That innocent touch evolved into a connection that was unmistakably more than platonic.
Where you would have transformed those nerves into courage and romance, my feelings led to fear, despair, and dark thoughts. My family didn’t accept me, and I lost friends. Yet, I discovered love — that person who enriches my life and continues to do so. After two decades, I still rest my leg on hers.
Understanding the LGBTQ Agenda
Over those years, I’ve come to understand and embrace the gay agenda. It’s about empowering others in the LGBTQ community to confidently hold hands with their crushes. Falling in love should not be fraught with fear or self-harm; suicide should never be an option for those with hearts full of love.
Love is a complex emotion. You can’t summon it or dictate its focus, but you can choose to accept it. Love should be allowed to exist freely, without fear or judgment. It embodies kindness and acceptance. Yet, it can also be a catalyst for animosity. The love you express for Jesus and your children often fuels your aversion to our happiness, leading to discriminatory attitudes.
At times, your interpretation of love challenges my own, leaving me hurt and angry. Mostly, it evokes sadness for you. Your love prevents you and your children from experiencing the richness that LGBTQ individuals bring to the world. It teaches fear rather than understanding. You risk isolating even your own children.
In contrast, the love that my community shares is welcoming and unconditional. We teach our children to embrace kindness and respect for all, regardless of how love manifests or what it looks like.
The Distinction Between Us
That is the distinction between us. I find strength in love rather than fear. I will continue to advocate for equal rights and the gay agenda, because you are correct: I am striving to normalize love — the very thing that divides us.
