why education on the lgbt+ community is important

Do you know what lgbt+ stands for? Do you know anyone apart of the lgbt+ community?

there are many people who question things about themselves. Do you?

8/10 people question things about themselves. It could be you next. Many people ignore or bully people that are diffrent to themselves they get lablled as abnormal sometimes by people who used to be the colsest of friends. People in the past used to call homosexuality as an 'illness' and they would try and 'cure' them with .torture methods. Homosexuality is not an illnes it is a feeling of true self, so why dont you let people live the same happy life they deserve instead of singilng them out, making them feel bad becausethis is how they feel. Nearly 48% of trans people under 26 said they had attempted suicide. 30% said thay had done so in the past year and 59% said they had at least concidered doing so.

why people dont educate about lgbt+

People dont educate about it because they are afraid.They are afraid about what people might think or think. But why are they worried. Theres nothing to be nervous of we need change so that not everyone is the same. Being diffrent is a good thing it shows a unique and diffrent perspective and being afraid is not necessary. Many of the older generations many be worried because when they where young it wasnt accepted to be diffrent but times have changed they no longer need to be afraid.

Do you agree that this should be happening? people being afraid, worried that if they show their true self they will be threatend, harrased by people who ont know anything about them. what thier personality is, whats happened in there past. Why do people think its ok just because the person cant hear they think its fine because they dont know what they are saying. but let me tell you it isnt ok. it doesnt make it right
