Acceptance

There are a lot of things I would never do in my life.  Just because I personally would never do them, doesn't make them wrong.  I guess I just don't understand why different gets the label of "bad" or "questionable" (*eye roll*).

I would never have a relationship with a woman.  I am not attracted to women. Does this make it wrong?  NO!  In fact, my Uncles are my shining example of what marriage should be!  They have been together for 27 years and are still in love and each other's best friend.

I would never be a stay at home mom.  Heck,I am not even sure I ever want to BE A MOM!  Does this make it wrong?  OF COURSE NOT!  I admire women who dedicate themselves to raising our future.  Kids need intelligent parents to teach them and nurture them.

So why is it okay for one person to say what is or is not acceptable in another person's love life?  As long as there is no abuse (emotional, physical, or sexual)-who are you to judge?  No relationship or person is perfect and everyone is going to have struggles and hardships.  But unless you are one of the people actually in the relationship, you have no idea what is really going on.

Until we learn to accept differences WITHOUT QUESTION, we will never have equality.  Don't YOU want to live in a world where all men are not only created equal, but also treated equal?
