Why Label ourselves?

Happy pride! Over pride "month" I got me thinking, and some disdain grew, about it being used as a corporate cash grab and it being designated to a single month when it should be an everyday thing! Get people to understand that the Bible never forbade consensual homosexuality, it forbade abuse, cheating, rape, and prostitution. Homosexual or not.

My annoyance with labels comes from them not doing what they originally were supposed to do. They are being over relied on to get people to accept us and I’m telling you right now that words will keep being invented and added to LGBTQIA’s+ until it encompasses everyone and NOTHING WILL CHANGE. If we want it to change we can:

1. Translate the holy books ACCURATELY so people will know that they don’t condemn homosexuality.
2. Start a religious history class, and eventually make it mandatory attendance everywhere, so people will understand what was happening when said books were written and why they were written.
3. Make queer studies available everywhere and maybe mandatory.
4. Elect leaders that DON’T hate us. Then all the safe spaces will be empty because EVERYWHERE WILL BE SAFE!!!!
5. The same goes for the Torah and the Qaran. None of them forbid consensual anything. True equality is not needing labels like gay and straight.
