Your brain is.” taking a clear stand on the same she wrote Such type of propaganda should not be encouraged.
The LGBTQ community needs our support. For centuries, people were forced to hide their sexuality. Pretend to be someone else. We need to have campaigns. Parades to tell everyone that it is okay to be yourself. No matter who you choose to love. You are accepted.”
