What are your thoughts?

Gender is what we are when we were born while sexuality is what we chose to be. No matter
what sexuality we are in, never invalidate other people’s choices and feelings because after
all, we are all the same- humans. Let us all be humane and educate ourselves to break
stereotyping genders that are stopping us whatever we want to do. We are already in this
generation where all sexualities are equal. We need quality for all where no one is on top or
under, and everone is free and happy without any judgment.
