Posts: 61 Join Date: Jun 2011 |  It Gets Better Hey guys - you've probably heard about this already, but I think it's a great project. It brings together people of all ages, races, genders, sexualities and backgrounds to talk about being gay and how we can make life easier for the next generation of LGBT people. Find it at:It Gets Better Project [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/user/googlechromeuk?v=CnFO8Hxp7CA&feature=pyv&ad=814709 1432&kw=it%20gets%20better[/YOUTUBE]

| Bow ties are cool. Full Member   Gender: Female Orientation: Pansexual lesbian in a heterosexual relationship Out Status: Most people Location: Scotland Age: 22 Posts: 343 Join Date: Apr 2011 | Re: It Gets Better That Rise Against video actually made me cry. I feel so bad for the ones who get bullied at school.  It doesn't have to be for sexual orientation, it just always makes me sad. But I know a boy who refused to wear a red shirt to school because some kids had said that it's a girly colour. And I know a girl who didn't want to wear her favourite shoes anymore because someone had called them "lesbian shoes". It makes me sad.But I really love this project. It's a good project. It has given so many famous people courage to stand up and talk to these kids that find it difficult, feel alone and different and like it will never get better. And for them it's very important that someone who they respect, see on TV, or has been in a similar situation, to stand up and say on tape that it gets better. Now I just would like to post some of my favourite It Gets Better videos here, but I probably shouldn't.
