In support of marriage equality, Ben & Jerry have teamed up with Stonewall to create Apple-y Ever After. On their website they state that “Social justice is at the core of our values. Since our humble beginning 34 years ago, Ben & Jerry’s has been an advocate for equal rights.”

I just had a really nice conversation on Omegle with a younger guy who wanted to learn more about the LGBT community. He was confused about his own sexuality, and I hope that I helped alleviate his fears a little bit. He kept telling me how much he admired the LGBT community, and telling me how nice I was.
What a nice young man. I hope he grows up to be proud of who he is, no matter what.
This is an example of a good person.

Karen Santorum: Gays ‘vilify’ my husband
Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum’s wife, Karen, on Monday accused the gay community of vilifying her husband.
At an event with mothers in South Carolina, a woman, who said her son was gay, told the candidate that she felt guilty for supporting him due to his opposition to gay rights.
“I still have that sense of guilt because his friends react to what they hear,” the woman explained. “Help me. How do I deal with that?”
Karen Santorum spoke up in defense of her husband.
“As Rick’s wife, I have known him and loved him for 23 years,” she said. “I think it’s very sad what the gay activists have done out there. They vilify him. It is so wrong. He loves them. What he has simply said is marriage shouldn’t happen.”
“As far as hating, it’s very unfortunate that has happened,” Karen Santorum added. “A lot of it is backyard bullying, where people will come up to us and they’ll say something. And we’ll ask them to give us an example, and they can’t even provide one example as to why they took the position they took.”
After Santorum compared homosexuality to “man on child, man on dog, or whatever the case may be” in an interview with The Associated Press in 2003, gay activist Dan Savage created a website redefining the former Pennsylvania senator’s last name as “the frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the by-product of anal sex.”
For years, Google has returned Savage’s website as the top search result for “Santorum.”
“The Internet allows for this type of vulgarity to circulate,” the candidate complained to Roll Call last year. “It’s unfortunate that we have someone who obviously has some issues. But he has an opportunity to speak.”
Speaking to CafeMom’s “Moms Matter 2012″ on Monday, Santorum said he was “doing what I’m called to do, which is to love everyone and accept everybody.”
“This is a public policy difference,” he said. “And I think the problem is that some see that public policy difference as a personal assault, that because I believe that marriage, which has existed before governments existed — marriage existed from the very beginning of time — it’s the way we were meant to be.”
This has to be one of the most ridiculous attempts to redeem something ever. I don’t think she knows how to explain anything that horribly.
I wonder if she would understand it if someone made the same statement when it came to Women’s Rights.
We love women, but quite frankly, we just don’t think they deserve to have any rights when it comes to having rights in out nation. Women voting, what next slaughtering infants for Satan?
IF there really was love for everyone in that family, they would believe in equality, not just equality until it no longer seems like it matches anything that they don’t personally like.

I have NO idea what to think about right now.

I have a very…narrow minded friend who doesn’t believe in equality for everyone. Now, I understand that everyone is entitled to their own opinions, and I respect and value everyone who chooses to express their thoughts and belief. I would be a hypocrite to say that being open minded and accepting everyone is the only way to to live despite weather I believe this to be true or not. Now, when you are expressing your opinion, when you are stating that you don’t believe in this or that and that you feel uncomfortable around a certain group of people due to their sexual orientation, I will listen to what you have to say, I won’t agree with you, but I understand that you have view things differently than I do. However, when you are talking about your “encounter” with someone with a different sexual orientation than yourself and you are depicting them like scum, you should be ashamed of yourself. You put these people in the same category that you would a pedophile, a rapist, a molester, an abuser, a monster. How dare you position yourself above an entire group of people just to defile them for who they are? You are just lowering my respect for you. I know that this in itself contradicts what I am trying to portray, but it is the lack of trying to understand a person and judging them that frustrates me.
