aka: pro-gbt, not a pro nor an anti-l

Somewhere in my conversation with Sarah and Sarina last night we got to talk about gays, then about lesbians. How I am a pro-gay person, and a non-pro-non-anti-lesbian if there's such a thing. In my twisted opinion, it is more scientifically possible to be gay than lesbian. For one, guys have an x chromosome, while girls don't have any y chromosome. Another, one which Sarah pointed out, every fetus starts as a female fetus, I am not entirely sure about that but that's what she said. If you want to verify, the internet is at your service. Although, while I was browsing about this, I think it contradicts that xx and xy chromosome thing. I don't know, I am not in the field of science.

I told my sisters, that I am pro-gay despite of what I have personally experienced with gay people around me. I don't take it against a person if he's gay, I don't take that in account for my disposition of liking or disliking them. There are many other factors to like or dislike a person other than being gay.

I also have this notion, that being gay feels like they have too much-ness. In Filipino, sobra sila, parang sumobra sila. As oppose to being a lesbian, I feel like something was torn apart from their being. As Sarah puts it, they are like broken. For me, they are torn. I know, I am setting a double standard here. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against lesbians,  I respect their sexuality. I even have a piano instructor who's a lesbian; I even had a friend who at that time claimed she was a lesbian but in my opinion she wasn't yet then, now she's a full fledged one. Only I am not one to stand up and fight for their rights and for what they believe in. I don't know, maybe because I am a girl? Sarina, pointed out that maybe this is how guys feel about gays. Perhaps, I am not sure. Maybe I should expose myself to some lesbian literature maybe then I could understand more.

Of all that, I just want to add that I am also pro-bisexuals and pro-transgenders. Why? I don't know. I am confused. :D Maybe because being a bisexual is one of the more natural thing in the world, in my opinion. I mean, I am a girl but I am really attracted to sexy women bodies, although without malice. hehehe. As for transgenders, this is how I see them, I can see them as a boy/girl, a kid who thinks and believes that he/she is a girl/boy all along, only they got the wrong genitals. I see them starting out as a kid without any influence from the outside world, it's all them. And they have always known who they are.

*Oh gahd! Am I incriminating myself? If I have offended someone, one way or another, please enlighten me. I am willing to understand. :D

**Feel free to suggest a good book  or movie about lesbians. Thanks! :D
