„Being gay isn’t normal“

„Wearing too much black makes you a depressive person“
- No it doesn’t, your clothes are a way to express yourself, it’s your personal freedom. It doesn’t make you anything that you don’t want to be. It only labels you for people of limited intelligence.

Being normal and functional is most important to the people that always claim they dont care what anybody thinks in the first place.
