“Why do LBGT people get special treatment? Society is more accepting of LBGT people every day. How come they receive special treatment and I don’t? They don’t need it. They don’t go through much. They’re pretty much equal to me.” — a straight white male

These are the reported beatings/murders of LBGT individuals in the past 17 months — from November 17th, 2011 to May 17th, 2013. The worst part? There’s more. From bodies of trans* individuals being found in the woods to an elementary school boy being beaten up by peers because his mother is lesbian. 

So unless your cis-gender peers have been beaten or murdered for the sole fact of “they were straight,” please don’t ever minimize the struggles of LBGT individuals as if they don’t struggle more than you do.

Love your enemy but don’t forget — they are NOT your friend.
