Umm...hi everyone. This is a new thing I'm going to be working on. For all of you that read my other story, don't worry. I'll still update it kinda regularly. So...this isn't really a chapter, just a little overview.

So what I'm going to do is take each line, each scenario, and write a short little story for it. That's it. Simple, and easy, and then it'llo be over with. These are just the scenarios I'll be doing. Just thought I'd show these so you know what to expect.

So..uh...yeah. No, I did not write these. I found them. My friend sent them to me from somewhere. So I give full crdit to these lines to the person that wrote them. Because without these, I wouldn't be doing this. And I should be going in the order they come, but I might not. So...yeah.

Anyway...I'm done talking.


Lines/Scenarios

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.

I'm the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.

I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.

We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.

I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.

I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.

I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.

I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.

We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.

I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.

I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.

I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.

I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.


And that's all of them. There aren't that many, I think, so this shouldn't be very long. I just hope you like this idea of mine, and the first chapter/scenario will be put up shortly. Maybe tomorrow or later on today. So yeah. Hope you're as excited about this as I am!
