loryisunabletosupinate:meravie:jesusvonrustle:kuwartzu:themovieneverends:the16thmeteorshower:This is so beautiful.“Abandoned by straight people.” Something homophobic people tend to over look.And that fucking GIF-set reached me again. Seriously, can I just rant for a second about how much I hate it?1: The term “gayby”. Seriously.2: The term: “gayby”.3: The fucking term “gayby”.4: Shane Dawson.Really, I understand the intent, but don’t fuck up on so basic levels. You make it sound like a fucking fashion accessory rather than a child. Also, by using that term, you are saying that babies adopted by gay couples are fundementally different from those adobted by straight ones. And they aren’t. They are still children.Also, do you /really/ want Shane Dawson of all people to speak to you about what you should do?Oh I just noticed something. “abandoned” by straight people? Oh, so all children are abandoned? So, no economic reason, no runaways, no abuse victims? All are abandoned? “But daddy #2, my parents died in a car crash…” ABANDONMENT!!!1!Okay, I’ll shut up before I rage out of control.Fuck Shane Dawson. Fuck him in his stupid ass.Yeah, this campaign is so aggressive, and really bad stereotyping of gay people. Homophobia is bad but so is this rubbish. And all the swearing and aggression of the ad video, with children shouting their mouths off. Ew.I’m very much offended by the idea that babies who are put up for adoption are being called “abandoned”. Maybe the parents didn’t want an abortion but couldn’t take care of the child. Maybe they were putting it up for adoption because they knew they couldn’t take care of the child and wanted to give someone else a chance to take care of their child.Hey. So, I’m adopted. My birth mother did not abandon me, in fact, her putting me up for adoption was an act of great love and care for my future. She was only about 25, and she knew she couldn’t take care of a baby by herself, because my birth father was nowhere to be found. She found a good adoption agency, and she found a family that she thought would be good for her child. That’s not abandonment. That’s not anything even close to it, and to insinuate that is an insult to her. -- source link
