Which means.....?

This, and combinations close to it, is a common group of initials. It stands for the following words which may describe a child, co-worker, relative, or friend of ours:

gay

lesbian

bisexual

transgender

questioning

Rainbows are used as a symbol of glorious self- expression and hope that everyone can and will celebrate the uniqueness of every human.

What it is NOT

These words do not mean an individual is a predator. They do not mean that the individual is interested in inappropriate "public displays of affection." They are not (or should not be) terms of insult. These labels describe an acknowledgement of what a Higher Power may have instilled in one of his precious creations.


R-E-S-P-E-C-T

Many battles have been fought and won for rights of segments of the human race. Rights of members of ethnic groups, members of religious beliefs, women, and others have been denied and then gained. One need not say in his heart of hearts "I totally agree with everything you believe and do" in order to be able to say "I totally believe that you have a right to be you, just as I have the right to be me." I urge you to replace any temptation to belittle the GLBTQ population with the overwhelming desire to respect them.


P.S.

This hub is intentionally short and sweet. I have purposefully not included anything which could be considered inconsistent with the excellent HubPages policy of no adult content. I would like to add that this hub was inspired by a performance of an incredibly talented quartet who fights prejudice and provides support to the GLBTQ population through humor and song.

If you ever feel the need to write more "freely," there is always www.blogger.com and www.wordpress.com .

I'm not sure what adult content means. I'll assume it means you can't just past porn site pictures and let them host the URL's name for free (as some people do elsewhere).

That said, keep on bloggin.

Thanks for that info. I am enjoying blogging here within the parameters, but it is good to know where to post if I feel a need to get writing on an extremely adult level... you keep up the good writing, too!
