    Follow the White Rabbit, based on the higher rates of drug use/abuse that I've seen/lived though.

    This is a trick question, yes? Disney would never approve of homosexuality. They are all relevant, of course, and evidence of Disney's hypocrisy.

    "Keep on believing". Yeah, keep on believing that claims that the community is all welcoming. The lgbt community isn't really a community, more of a large amount of loosely knit cliques and you're only really welcome if you fit into one of those cliques.

    Edit: Siarad, most of those phrases existed before disney got a hold of them.

    I'd agree with you there, of course - but I would still say that Disney are hypocritical, they love to appear all welcoming and accepting but remain homophobic and also desperately try to cover up the facist nature of their founder. (I grew up on Disney films and would have to admit to loving many of them, thus indicating my own hypocrisy) but Disney's continuing homophobia is deeply disturbing.

    Well, most of the stories that Disney has, they've twisted to make a bit more child friendly. The source material for a lot of their cartoon movies is rather dark.

    I think the question itself does, and simultaneously explains why I wish to be severed from it

    not to be nit picky, well actually to be exactly that, the precise quote is not "those who wander are not always lost" but is actually "not all those who wander are lost" and is a line from the poem "All That is Gold Does Not Glitter", which was written by J.R.R. Tolkien describing Aragorn in The Fellowship of the Ring. But it still describes the LGBT community in that society is heteronormative and we differ from that,

    Its the perfect quote for me, because being gay isn't a choice but being out and proud is.

    Thank you! I knew that was J.R.R. Toilken. I agree with you - I think it does describe the LGBT community.

    of those really the best is


    "Choose your own path" - we need to go ahead and be different from heteronormative society, this really is what defines LGBT is it not?
