      To think this was only 17-20 years ago. People complain about lgbt representation being too “in your face” and celebrated these days but it wasn’t too long ago that kids would be relentlessly bullied for being gay or sent to conversion therapy and it would be looked at as a “reasonable response” to homosexuality. It’s more accepted to be gay in a lot of countries these days and that’s why so many people are advocating for more representation into media.

And it didnt help that his dad didnt want to sit down and talk to him and just live in denial after he told him. Spinner didnt help either by writing it on the wall in the bathroom and for how he treated him in gym class .

I don’t know much about religion, but I do know that the Gospel of Jesus Christ was NEVER intended to used as a means for division! It was NEVER intended to be used as a weapon! The Gospel of Jesus Christ was supposed to be an example of LOVE, SERVICE, FAMILY, FRIENDSHIP. Jesus Christ NEVER looked down on a single soul! We are FAILING our Lord and Savior with how much division is in our world today!

      I am not religious and I have nothing against gay people. In the Bible, it is very strongly against homosexuality. The following verses clearly state that. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, Roman 1:18-32, Leviticus 18:22, Leviticus 20:13 and Genesis 19. Even if you believe that silly Garden Of Eden story, God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.

    Except he did ask him to. He basically hounded him outside The Dot for answers about why he wouldn't date hazel. Marc should have said "I don't find Hazel attractive but i didnt want to say it in front of her so I came out here". Snipper would have understood because even though he called her "one of Degrassi's coolest girls", she's not attractive. Instead he outed himself to the worst possible person.

    There is nothing sane about heteronormative assumptions about human sexuality. After 70 years of attempted education and battles very few true gains in understanding and true acceptance has been made.
    Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Saviour. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. Ephesians 5:22-33
    Now that you can read what god tells you, put your Bibles in the garbage! Besides there is no god, which is a important point.
