OK So for my English class we have to write poetry So when I did My Teacher Said it was really good and read it to the class It mentioned a few gay things for example Sadly Anyone Who Believes in LGBT rights Will get attacked Sit down shut up stay in inside If You Don’t Understand Something It’s best To be Afraid -Me P>S> Hi Mom That was my ending phrase So people have been calling me Gay Then it got worse when I won a contest So What do I Do?
Be cool! It's a chance to educate people. 90% will be awesome with it, and the other 10% don't matter.
I agree with the above posts. But if you're really not comfortable with it, tell them you wish there to be no publicity or awards etc for the poem. There is absolutely no way they can force any attention on you... unless you went and signed a contract :/
This is wierd because I was going to read some of my poetry at an open coffee house ordeal tommorow but it turns out my poems seems a little gay (to me). So you and I have a similar problem. I just haven't said any of my poems yet
Exact response when someone calls you gay from hearing your writings: "And your point is...?" If you make it clear that it's not an insult to you, then they won't bother trying to use it as an insult. In fact, you'll have fun watching them deflate right before your eyes.
Well personally saying yeah I know its gay thats why I did it! Wouldn't Work "So, Your Saying Your Gay?" Uhhh... No "You just said it!" " ----- Gay !" Yeah thats not going to work
