what do you THINK
it depends its different from area to area
like in lebanon its not considered to be a mental illness to be gay, in a lot of other places it is
and theres a lebanese band called mashrou' leila. their lead singer is openly gay and lives in lebanon and makes music here and all and talks about it publicly and its fine. for me, its not. i can't just go OH IM GAY and expect everyone to accept that because that won't be the case.
its weird. like with a lot of gay people here... they never SAY out loud that they are gay but everyone just knows it. and no one really cares for the most part.
i don't know what i'm saying but its all very complicated.
