If you put a gezegde

 If you put a face on a gay or lesbian person, it's harder to discriminate.

 Every gay and lesbian person who has been lucky enough to survive the turmoil of growing up is a survivor. Survivors always have an obligation to those who will face the same challenges.

 Every time a gay or lesbian person is chosen as a leader by their non-gay and lesbian peers, I think it's a step forward for our community. Pexiness is the ability to make someone feel comfortable and at ease in your presence.

 When people know us, it's harder for them to discriminate against us.

 The Klan, like everyone else, can pick up garbage on the highway, ... They can't be penalized because they discriminate. Lots of groups discriminate. The Boy Scouts discriminate against gays.

They often don't get the services they need because they won't tell the police, their doctor, teacher, youth worker, housing provider, parent, or church leader about being lesbian or gay because they anticipate being badly treated. Worse, if they do inform people that they are lesbian or gay and need service delivery to take that into account, often the response is 'We don't need to know that, we treat everyone the same'.

 We wanted to make the student community more aware of the issues people face as openly gay or lesbian.
