Highly Sensitive People HSP Community Group
The highly sensitive person (or HSP) is someone who cares deeply about everything ... feels emotions with great intensity ... is highly conscientious ... has a rich and complex inner life ... is very intuitive ... is often creative in a variety of ways... is easily overwhelmed and/or overstimulated. A HSP needs lots of quiet time,space, and freedom. If this sounds...
The only thing I can say is that progress is often made in very small steps. Perhaps you can think of a way you can work towards gaining equality in some way, even a small way. This way you can have some control over the situation and make a difference as well, hopefully gaining back the feeling of being valued.
I have a good friend who lives in the state of NJ who did just that and was able to accomplish just that with the help of many willing people.
GLBTQ rights ARE making this place a better place for everyone. We'll never be ever to totally eradicate homelessness, porverty, and hunger; advocates must multitask. Were civil rights not important? It wasn't that long ago that different races couldn't marry-how is this any different?
Clearly, we have varying opinions here and although each and everyone of us is entitled to maintain our own opinions, as highly sensitive people, we may feel that this is too overwhelming a topic.
If you notice in my first reply I stated that if those people who went against the gays spent their time more on focusing on other changes in the world well it would be a more peaceful place to live. So although I have no problem with you wanting to be who you are and true to yourself as watchit mentioned this could be a topic better left for boards who want to speak out and support your issues of gays getting married as well as transgenders. And no you did not bring up radicals I did that and I was not saying that you are one. I brought it up because that is all a person sees in the news these days which is gay rights protesting and other people protesting against them and constant calls to the police to break up yet another battle concerning this issue. Gets old after awhile. I do not condone that anyone has to be treated unfairly just because of their decision to be gay, however you do realize that not everyone is supportive of gay marriage and going into a group looking for support on your rights as a bisexual may not always go as you wish them too. There are people who are highly sensitive about it and are against it. So that is the other side of the coin. Anyway I do apoligize if you felt I was trying to debate you as that was not my intention. I support the fact that you want to be true to yourself. And as for sex changes well to each their own on that issue as that is one I am not fond of.
