Hi, Satovan, it's nice to meet you. I bet all of those guys at the camp out got a good laugh at your expense, mostly because they felt like part of the group to make jokes about your sexuality. If any of them stood up and said, "Hey, what's the big deal? Why are you making fun of Satovan?" well, then they might be labeled gay, too, and wouldn't that just be the end of the world?

Congratulations on being open and living your life the way you are most comfortable and forget the ignorant ppl of this Earth. If you try to hide your sexuality and live a "straight" life it will ruin you, trust me. You might have to move away from your small town, if so, do it and be free to be yourself.

I don't know why some ppl think that all homosexual ppl are rapists, that's ridiculous. Do all straight men rape women? Of course not!! Another thing that irks me are those who say that homosexuality is a choice. What? A choice? Why would anyone make the choice to be ridiculed and stigmatised by insensitive, ignorant ppl?

Think of all of the food that tastes good to you. What if someone told you that those foods are "wrong" and you have to enjoy only the foods that taste really awful. How could you do that? We have no control over what tastes good to us, so how in the hell are we supposed to control who we find attractive? Just a generalization but maybe some ppl understand what I just said.

Keep your chin up, Satovan, I really do think that the world is becoming a better place. Don't be ashamed of who you are and be proud of the fact that you are "out" and not living a life of deceit.
