As a straight, white, skinny, middle-class male, who was raised as a Christian, I haven't had to overcome much when it comes to being accepted. I don't know how it feels to fight for acceptance.
I'd actually like to hear of your fights for acceptance. Not because I'm trying to tease you about it, but because I think it's good to hear what others have had to overcome in life. It makes you appreciate not having to overcome those things a bit more.
I'm fully behind this.
It also helps you appreciate a person, much more.
It may even help change a persons opinion on another, whom they may have already passed judgment upon irrationally.
(a lot of that in a forum like this)
However, I also appreciate when a person wants to keep it to themselves.
I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.
