Other than showbiz, I have never seen a more concentrated populace than in our Industry, Reps, TLs, QAs, OMs err you get the point.
Why you may ask? After years and years of being misunderstood and treated like trash read Mon Tulfo http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/inquirerheadlines/metro/view/20091119-237115/Gays-should-not-abuse-societys-tolerance - We have finally at least in this growing industry proven ourselves not as second rate citizens but productive, reliable individuals.
This is about the only other industry where we flourish, and are required by our work to be so - How many gay top performers do you know in your office, especially sales? We are everywhere.
And as our population grows little by little we become varied in the hetereyes, like each person is different from the other duh!
Yes we don't all wear makeup and are not compelled to - but it doesn't mean that those who do deserve less respect - We are trying to live our lives the best we can, and this industry somewhat allows that - And no Mr. Tulfo we don't need tolerance from you - Funny did it ever occur to him we are tolerating his bigotry and for far too long!, funnier even that these people know of only lashing out on minorities to get attention - Well then here you go - Moo!
I feel the need to speak about this because think about it - Some Bully is tormenting your bestfriend, your father, your son? Are you just going to sit there and stare?
I apologize if I'm a little out of track here - I just need to let this out.
All I'm saying is we(LGBT) do our best in the hopes of progress and yet here we are again, Why does it feel like I have to prove myself always.
Honestly, Personally i don't because people will always make you feel that way to make them feel better about themselves - And I am not a fan of baits.
We are here, there is no use in denying that - We are not going anywhere - So live and let live.
