When I told my friends about my sexuality, they all said the same thing: It doesn't affect how they perceive me and that they were amazed at my courage. However I noticed that their feelings towards homosexuals hadn't changed. I had to confront one of my best friends over his repeated use of the word "queer" and how derogatory the word is. Everyone told me that he shouldn't have to change a word he's used all his life. It's obvious to anyone that if someone's best friend is offended by a certain term, then that person should do something about it, however society unfortunately isn't like that
