On television and online the gay community seems warm and embracing, kind and understanding, exciting and adventurous, but once you become a part of it (or should I say "try to" become a part of it) you find it is as riddled with cruelty beyond what you would ever expect from a minority group. In my experience a lot of that cruelty is a product of gay men being constantly abused from all directions our entire lives, BUT... being abused doesn't give us the right to abuse others. We all know the saying, "hurt people hurt people." Let's use our experiences as strength to feel empathy for others so we can create a TRUE COMMUNITY across the globe for ALL of mankind, not just for ourselves.
PART 2 IS COMING SOON. IT'S BEEN A FEW YEARS SINCE THIS VIDEO WAS POSTED, AND I HAVE A FEW NEW IDEAS I'D LIKE TO SHARE AND EXPAND ON--ESPECIALLY AFTER SO MUCH GREAT CRITICAL FEEDBACK IN THE COMMENT SECTION. KEEP AN EYE OUT!
I would genuinely love to hear feedback from other members of the gay community. Have you shared similar experiences? Do you chalk it up to humanity as a whole, or do you also feel the abuse gay men have experienced has shifted perspectives to a less desirable place?
Thank you so much for watching! Make sure you subscribe if you like what you see! I do a bunch of different stuff on my channel! Really, whatever I feel like filming HAHA!
I'd like to add I never share my experience to get "I'm sorry's" in the comments. I understand many feel empathetically or socially compelled to apologize for pain others have experienced, but please don't feel the need to do so here. The hardship and pain we experience is not meant to break us down (although it often does). It is meant to teach us lessons. If you find yourself experiencing the same traumas (as I have found myself doing on many occasion) take the time to focus on what lessons that trauma might have in store for you. Once you learn them you will have broken that cycle! But be prepared! Because once you break a cycle you will always enter into a new cycle. Learn the lessons, grow and keep on going!
Love you guys and gals and non binary pals! And everyone else whom I do not have time to list LOL ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for being here with me!
