    This is one of the purest examples of friendship and it's so beautiful.

      ***** I'm quite sure there have been chivalrous acts as much as this one. It'd be impossible for there not to be with the billions of people in this planet. We just don't know about them

      ***** I couldn't agree with you more. I came out in 1970. Sometimes I think things really haven't changed that much and then I see something like this and I realize just how much things really have changed. That young man who asked his friend to go to a prom has no idea what that does. I do. I had a straight friend of mine take me out on New Years Eve when I was at one of the lowest points in my life. Bless you.

      @Ausholliday15 9 років тому +9

      ***** It's good having people like them in our lives, my friend who is straight and that I've helped through all his relationships became one of my best friends, and he's becoming comfortable about me being attracted to guys and even would try to encourage me to try to hit one up. Practically familial now.

      Yeah, amazing and tragic how things shifted so methodically that the real purposes and real history of civilizations lost due to centuries full of overzealous ambition and fear driven egos.

    When I was 13, I had a boy ask to hold my hand and go to the 8th grade prom with him and I said no... I was too scared. I regret that. I'm glad kids any age these days may feel okay about being who they are.

      @JohnMcCormickSF 8 років тому +85

      Thanks, Dree! But, I watched him be bullied and made fun of other ways and I did nothing. But, then again... I was 13. I wish now I would have become his friend and stood up for him, but that was a different time then. So, I don't blame myself too much.

    • @MsStormcrow

      zamakhosi oupa " All change is championed by the youth of the day and when it comes by in such a loving,caring and joyful manner instead of violent revolution, it simply says that ,the youth of today are by far the most civilized ever."... you have a lot to learn, Change is continuous, those who onced changed may now be older and continue to change. Todays youth benefit from those who have before them, they are able to continue change because of others and one day soon. All youth think they are the only ones to ever create change. We are all still very young and wanting love and beauty in our lives...

    Jacob not only asked Anthony to prom, he also raised his self-esteem and gave him all the confidence in the world. That's that greatest gift any one could ask for. As for Jacob himself, he's one of those people that are their happiest when they make others happy. It's great to see people like that in the world.

    • @joshuahughes-davies7124
      @joshuahughes-davies7124 7 років тому +1

      +Dan Seabreeze You could do more by just helping them outright. Your ideas, whilst admirable are lost on many. In fact many think that labels just contribute, and I agree. Morgan Freeman is my touchstone for social issues. Stop making it about race, class, sexuality and make it about people. Make it about human rights and human issues. A boy can be bullied for being gay just as a boy could be bullied for liking dance, having red hair, having a disability. Or he could just be bullied because he was himself. That's the core issue. When we see adults subjugating others because of who they are, it's like looking at a child who never learnt to look past their own insecurities and see another human being before them. That's what I believe. Straight people don't subjugate gay people. People subjugate people. Being gay is a convenient excuse.

    • @joshuahughes-davies7124
      @joshuahughes-davies7124 7 років тому

      +Dan Seabreeze I get what you're saying. Define the issue by defining the social group it affects. I just don't personally want to approach it that way. I want a world where looking at this could be a non-issue or perhaps even a commonality, where people can go to dances together and be completely platonic with sexuality never being a problem or factor. It's an ideal world for sure and I strongly suspect it is impossible to achieve but doubt is a poor bedrock for persistence.
      Sorry to say it so obviously bit being gay is more than being attracted to men and having notions of taboo attatched to you. It's about being human and being part of a society with human issues surrounding sexuality, preconceptions and relationships.

      kikonyc68 I wish that would be true, but not everyone will ever be okay with it. I don't mean to be religious or anything but Christian people really die hard Christian people some won't accept it, they'll see it as something abnormal, some other religions as well.. but they'll just need to accept it.

    • @kikonyc68
      @kikonyc68 9 років тому +20

      I don't mean every single person on the planet will accept it. Some men today still look down on women like they are lesser beings, black people and other people of colors are still heavily discriminated by some people. But it is more normal to accept equality. It is more normal to be open minded or at least put your judgmental mind aside and act civilized. Fuck Christians. They don't run the world.

      @alexthompson8977 6 років тому

      NU'EST my lifeu calling something that was stated as a sin wrong is not judging. Juding would be me saying "he is perverted and horrible". All I'm saying is that he is doing wrong. I could never call myself a friend and support him increasing his risk of aids and other gender related diseases and being more prone to getting infections due to more unsanitary practices. Not to mention damaging his anal cavity. Would you want your friend to take all these negative effects just to make him happy? There are videos of people who got over these desires and are happy. He can also do this.

So "technically" if gays don't have sex but still be together then it's fine.😂 But we all know that's not the case as gay people especialy men are know for their sexual behavours which is why the have an increased risk of aids(also I don't support anal sex at..all as that damages the anal cavity).😂 and yeah I'll excuse your english I make gramatical mistakes all the time.

    Both of you guys are incredible, and have taken a huge step in showing the world there's nothing scary, weird, or abnormal for two guys, one gay and one straight, to go to the prom simply like two good friends going to a baseball game just to have a good time. Girls have been able to dance with each other for centuries, and nobody thinks a thing about it. You two gentlemen have taken a huge step in making homophobia a thing of the past, and I congratulate both of you, especially Jacob, for having the courage, to see past any sexual ramifications, and just go to a prom with your best friend. You really deserve credit for being a great guy! And like the post following this, I hope the day is coming when this wont be a cause to have to see sexual overtones or something wrong with it. All my best to both of you.

      If it would have been my cake someone at that bakery would NOT be working there anymore , I love this video , it takes a lot of courage to ask someone especially when it's the same sex no matter if they're straight , gay , bi , black and white , it doesn't matter , what matters is they both know who they are so I say way to go , lots of love from Florida :-P

    I grew up in a different era that this would never happen. I'm never would have supported this. But after having kids of my own and seeing how they reacted to having gay friends and some weird friends as well I see nothing wrong with this. I think it's pretty cool that this kid asked out his best friend to the prom. True friendship.

  • @tic857
    @tic857 3 роки тому +2

    I know this is 6 years ago but its still relevant. Lots of school officials forget that there is an unspoken majority of "dates" that are just friends going with friends and most of them are same gender, orientation rarely a factor. But there's so much pressure to go to prom with someone who might be romantically interested in you and to look like a conventional couple, but its just another school dance, an overblown one at that. And for a school to dictate who a kid should be dating, or potentially romantic is just creepy.
