Ok so, when I read the statement, I thought that the way the brought it up wasn't good and it bothered me. Saying that someone should act less "gay", doesn't reflect on the fact that they are homosexual, but more on that they find that they act dumb or stupid, I think, which just isn't a right thing to say. It is an opinion and therefore something like this shouldn't at all be based on that.
BUT, it could also mean that they should really act less gay - which would be girly-like for guys -, and I have to say that in that sense, I can't help but agree a little. Before you start telling me that everyone is free and that they are allowed to express themselves in whatever way they want (of course I do agree with this), what I mean is that when you
act like i.e. a dumbass (just giving an example here), then don't be surprised if other people are going to treat you like one, or bully you for being one. Now I know that people who are gay, are just gay, they can't help it, but I do think that a LOT of homosexual people really over-exaggerate, and I don't find it all that surprising that they would be bullied for that, because it's just ridiculous, the way some people act and exaggerate. Just because you are gay, does not mean you have to go throw flowers everywhere and blow handkisses to everyone, and I feel that a lot of people just act this way because they feel like they can, because they are gay, and I can
understand - not saying I
agree - why they would be bullied. My best friend is gay, and he isn't like that either. He's just like a dude, with a different sexual preference. He doesn't go acting like a girl or anything. Like I said before, of course the people who act this way are allowed to do that, and it doesn't necessarily bother me, I am just saying that if you don't want to be bullied (and you know it's gonna happen when you act like that), then they should just tone it down a bit.
I also feel like I need to point out that I know that NOT ALL GAYS ARE LIKE THIS AND I DON'T THINK THAT EITHER, I am just talking about the select few that ARE in fact like this, and imo are just bringing it upon themselves a little.
And of course I think that the teachers shouldn't have said it like that, that's just not good.
