Default Purple-out

(Instead of White-out, Purple-out)

Anyways..

There is an event circulating around Facebook (it currently has over 300,000 attending) and on multiple other sites including but not limited to Tumblr and multiple LGBT sites.

So, I decided to spread the word here.

Wear purple on 10/20/10 (this coming Wednesday) to remember the victims of suicide brought on by abuse/bullying/etc due to sexual orientation.

ARE YOU WEARING PURPLE?

I know a lot of people are going to wear things like purple silly-bands or purple ribbons since they have no purple shirts.

A lot of people seem to have no purple. Very interesting. It was my favorite color as a kid, but now I only have one old sweater myself.

I have a purple shirt, purple pants, and a purple sweatshirt, but I'm only going to wear one. I'll participate, but I'm not going to compromise my homosexual pride in what I wear.

I have a sort of maroon/dark purple jumper I hope that counts, though the writing scratched my nipples :P (actually kinda sore) I guess I'll wear that
