Thank you for posting this. I'm sobbing like a baby. I wish people had done that for me when I was in school. Happy International Day Against Homophobia!

As a straight woman, I say it's about bloody time this message of acceptance went out. Hate is so insidious -- and this kind of bullying engenders self hate, which can be a needless, crippling, lifelong burden. I think this is awesome.

This video is a wonderful example of the peer support gay youth will hopefully find when they are in high school. As a gay man who didn't come out until his late 20s, I truly hope that young gay people are comfortable being who they are. Believe in yourself above all else.
