I am not a stereotypical gay teenager. For example, I will not be writing about what Miley Cyrus wore yesterday, though I might take some time to bash her for trying (and failing) to sing. I refuse to indulge in celebrity gossip: I'd much prefer to discuss the President's latest actions. I won't simply blast homophobes and fundamentalist Christians "ThEiR sOoOoOoOo StUpId", but probably calmly explain my reasons for finding their beliefs ridiculous, medieval, and fanatical. I might discuss the actions of a celebrity, but only to support or criticize their political statements and/or moves. I will definitely spend time ranting about my life (i.e. the discrimination, adversity, and general crap that I encounter), but that's only when I feel the need to channel my anger.
Essentially, I am a politically aware, literate teenager, bent on putting my opinion out there whether you like it or not. Life's a B, isn't it?
