Originally posted on August 10, this video shares the pain a bullied gay youth feels on the eve of his eight grade year. You may be surprised at how it ends.

The torment goes on today, but being an adult and knowing that I was not the only sissy/fag/queer and being able to meet others similarly afflicted made a big change. I as could many others write a book on how difficult it is to be gay and the toll that early torment takes on your later life. It is way past time for gays and lesbians to stand up against those that will destroy us.

“It was lonely. It was hard. I can tell you that it’s not easy, necessarily, to get through those kind of tough times, but you must because you have your whole life in front of you.”
