I think the It Gets Better project rocks but shouldn’t be limited to just gay people – what about all of us nerds, losers, dorks and general outcasts that were tormented as teens but lived to tell the tale?
This goes beyond a G/L issue – it’s about all struggling youth who feel that high school is IT – nothing could be more permanent or lasting – and think that the fools surrounding them know all.
Fuck that – open your project to anyone that has struggled through bullying and put a true voice at there for ALL the kids suffering daily and doubt their worth. Unfortunately a lot of us (straight folks too) have been there and it would have made a HUGE difference in my teen years to know – hey – this will go away – these people aren’t shit – and someday I’ll be a grown up, making my own rules, picking my own friends and LIVING my own life – with no regard for the douches that tried to make me think I wasn’t worth living.
Love ya Dan…
