    Just to note, even with a petition of a million strong, it wouldn't encourage NATO to do anything. There are far more political and societal considerations to be made by NATO before they act. They could care less what 1 million American (and perhaps some European) people think. In the end its just an electronic record of some people who wanted to feel smugly superior because they signed a petition to try and have action made to help those poor children.

    While it is true that awareness can be raised, I don't think anyone on this site is naive to the happenings of the world, so I'm pretty sure, at least on this site, awareness has already been raised.

    Kyuu has it. This thread is a support thread for homosexuality. It isn't a debate against gay marriage. It isn't a debate over homosexuality. It's a support thread. You posted a link with the purpose of trolling and goading our LGBT users. There was no reason to post it in a thread that's meant to be for supporting those who are too afraid to come out and say what they truly believe they are.

    I suggest you take Kyuu's advice by ignoring this thread entirely to save yourself from further embarrassment, IE. your recent status update and your "ban me" outburst in this thread. Playing the martyr card won't get you any sympathy here.

    So, I don't read the most manga ever, but most of the ones I have read, have swearing in them.

    I'm totally confused by this. Why? In Japan is swearing normal?

    What kind of swearing is it? Certain words like "damn" and "shit" are said by most folks now with no repercussions.

    I would prefer less "I have a crush on this DCW member" comments, for the record. Take DCW-related stuff involving specific members up with the specific members instead of airing it out publicly like it's dirty laundry. Thank you.

    Well, I don't think you guys quite understand.

    I told my parents several months ago, but every time I bring it up my mom just has that... look in her eyes and it's extremely annoying. It gets kinda tense after.

    If I ever have a child, or adopt one for that matter and they come to me and say, "Mom... I'm homosexual" or bisexual, I'm just going to say, "Alright. What do you want for dinner?"

    Please treat it like it's normal. The kid wouldn't want anymore stress and if they need to talk about it, I'll listen. But the upcoming generations should learn that homosexuality isn't unnatural. There are many things that are unnatural that are human made things and technology. That's not natural, yet we still use it and it's a big aspect of our life.

    "Please treat it like it's normal."

    This is where you're making your mistake. You're expecting your parents to completely understand. Chelsea, your parents came from a different time and a different world. They weren't prepared in this world for such a radical thing such as homosexuality being not just accepted in this world, but for their own child to be deciding on whether or not they are something other than heterosexual. It is extraordinarily easy for a liberal teenager to say "I'm just gonna be like 'alright' and not care", but it's not as easy for a parent who doesn't have the preparation for such an issue like you have. No matter how liberal your parents are, they're not prepared. Very few parents are.

    They'll understand in due time, but telling them as soon as you did probably won't be the wisest decision you'll ever make.

    I asked this on the DCW Facebook page and I kinda want to ask you guys, too, because frankly it's an interesting question.

    How many of you only follow the anime and not the manga? How do you keep yourselves from being spoiled?
