A very sensitive topic and I never understand why? LGBT has been with us since creation and not any person on the planet can help who their parents are or what gender or other things they are born with not that science doesn’t try. Just like any group the main fear is that if we get to close or except then they might be turned HA HA or change everyone else’s world. For some who try that lifestyle may stay there and others may not but society has deemed this evil . As a social worker since 1991 I have pretty much seen it all. LBGT folks are no different than any one else as far as being good or bad. In all Races and Genders both exist . FEAR is and always has been a rational thought and mind killer.

yes! to “other” anyone is a strategy to keep us divided so we don’t/can’t rise up in our strength – which is stabilized in love, creativity, diversity and inclusiveness.
authoritarians need a bogeyman – there always has to be something to “be afraid of” something “out there” to keep people looking away from power grabs and real atrocities.
