  • zipster u are the sexiest mofo on youtube in really jealous

  • Im a person

  • Well, this guy is weird, but, I read the description, the WHOLE thing, very sad and more or less true.

  • Can this user be banned, first for being an un-educated bigot, 2nd for being stupid, and 3rd for displaying it in public. Get a grip..hoo what??

  • that was crazy ya dig

  • that was crazy ya dig

  • I have something to say here. I take monumental issue with the "I am the woman who died when the EMTs stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual" you hypothesize about. I am a gay EMT and the president of Marist College's LGSA. I have worked alongside EMTs from every stroke of life but not ONCE have I EVER seen ANYONE disregard their duty as a tech because of his or her patient's lifestyle. That is egregiously against the law and the calling to serve we all have.

  • man u are the coolest old man i have ever seen u are so cool

  • Wow, I'm glad that I am not one of the people listed at the side or know anyone like them!

  • lol u rock grandpa!!!

  • i don,t see the text. but keep on keeping on .

    karen

  • is this done yet? i wanna see it!!

  • stand up and be proud to be gay

  • I am the one who is very homophobic

  • your prob love , homophobes are normaly gay in hiding anyway

  • Thank you for this.. I'll be watching your videos from now on!

    "I am the man who died when the EMTs stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual."

  • HOMO-EROTIC!

  • I made a response to this but...um being the idiot that I am, I dont know how to post the video so just click my name and go to my Re:We Need You vid, thnx ^^

  • I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn't have to always deal with society hating me.

    I am the girl whose heart was broken, just because her girlfriend was afraid to show her true colors.

    I am the girl who lost her best friend, becaause 27 straight males attacked hima dn his boyfriend because they were "sick wrong bastards"

    I am the girl wo has tried to end my life, because I wasn't able to be accepted for who I am.

    I am me.

  • I am the person ashamed to tell my own friends I'm a lesbian, because they constantly make fun of them.

    That used to be me. But my friends ended up not caring! XD This is great. It's so hard for us high schoolers.

  • you are so cute, sending u a str8 hug.

  • hahaha you gotta lot of energy lol can I have your hat lol, you can have mine lol it says Jinro I dunno wthell that means lol

  • Your a good actress zipster!!!

  • omg

  • being gay is very wrong, go to church!

  • Hey great idea! There are so many "gay" churches around and several "main stream" churches now that acceptand welcome gay people as part of gods creation. The only thing wrong here is your view that gay is wrong.

  • suck my balls bitch

  • LarryLemon: Yeah? Well, in church you should hear "He who is without sin cast the first stone." and "Judge not, for you as you judge so will you be judged."

  • spam ?

  • amen to that brother haha

  • I'm a lesbian. :3 So haha.

  • We're all already here, why do some have to make life worse? That kind of ignorance spreads until everyone's affected.. needs some sort of quarantine.. I'm working on one now.

  • I am the Christian with a very strong faith who feels sad when I hear about Christians talking hateful towards homosexuals. See the movie "Frisbee" about Lonnie Frisbee who was the original "Jesus Freak" and he was instrumental in starting a major revival in the late 60's and early 70's. He passed away of AIDS. Jesus loves all of us.

  • amen

  • I am working on a video response, but probably won't have time to work on it till Tuesday. I hope you can wait that long...

  • I can relate to "I am the sister who holds her gay brother through the painful and tear-filled nights" in my life it's not my brother, but my cousin. our whole family supports everything he is. I don't have a camera, but wanted you to know that if I did, I'd do this in a heartbeat!

  • that is a cause i could support

  • I was trying to respond to IdOntWaNnAdOiTaLoNe.

    a mis-click...

  • I was trying to respond to IdOntWaNnAdOiTaLoNe.

    a mis-click...

  • Im confuzzeled.

  • I'm totally straight. What offends me the most are the insecure macho guys who screech about morality but have their own heads nine miles up their own asses, which is abnormal at best and qualifies them as self-sodomites.

  • gays should be put togther on some island far far away from here were they can be gay all they want to and normal girl-loving guys like me don't have to feel like puking everywhere i go

  • I want to puke just reading ur comments u redneck f*ck!

  • That sounds lovely Cupcake, but people like you have already tried. Does Nazi Germany ring a bell? Ask yourself how life would be if people attacked you because they didn't like your girlfriend. Ask how you would feel if old men you'd never met made laws to keep you from marrying her because they didn't think she Looked right for you. Now ask yourself how it would feel if some jerk-off posted saying that you both make him want to puke - though he's never met either of you.

    - Persephone

  • Who are you responding to? My comments are in favor of tolerance and in opposition to homophobia.

  • If you're puking everywhere you go, it's called being sick. You're just a homophobe who can't accept other people's preferences. Maybe you should be sent to an island far far away from people who do tolerate gay people.

  • Hey Zipster,

    I think this is a great idea and I want to thank you for doing it. I watched the uploaded responses and felt compelled to add one of my own. There really is no topic more personal than Who We Are. The world could use a little more love and a little less judgment. good luck with your project and thanks.

    Persephone

  • and arent those lines from some poem ive seen it someware befroe.

  • It's a chain letter.

  • omg finnaly someone like who has a large subscription base is trying to make a public service thingy like this.

  • There are still 8 lines of dialogue available.

  • i have no clue what the hell every body( including this video and its responses) are talkking about someone please tell me

  • I think it is to illustrate the challenging existence of gay / lesbian folk . I am not sure if Zipster is wanting your real experiences - or just to read these lines. Possibly some clarification is necessary .

  • I am the person who is happy to be straight and will always be straight. I also follow the glorious quran. Specifically telling how not to be a homo. so im gonna have to not support on this one.

  • Shame on you!! I am a muslim and a lesbian. I believe that Allah made us this way and the Quran does not tell you how not to be a homo, that is just rediculous. If you are truely are holy person, you would refrain from judging others because we are already judged ourselves, for being muslims. We should just love each other unconditionally. PEACE!!

  • oh really do you know what the punishment for being homosexual is? execution. didnt want to post that so i wouldnt offend anyone. if you would have read the quran you would have known that. and in the hadith there was a land called luut. eveyone was homosexual. god turned it over upside down killing everyone because they wouldnt listen to the profit trying to convert them to believe in god.

  • Sorry... but I wouldn't take the word of anyone who spells prophet like "PROFIT". Ignorant people should not be dispensing advice or their brand of alleged wisdom.

  • Gosh, I am very sorry to have to comment here because I try not to judge others, but this was gothictiers idea and you either liked the idea or you didn't. You seem to have liked it only when you thought it was Zipsters idea.

  • What is PSA?

  • Oops, I got it, Public Service Announcement, Sorry.

  • fuck this old guy shut the fuck up i don't give a fuck about u

  • calm down... haha

  • Hi Zippy, this is an honourable idea but I don't think I will be watching the videos as it makes me feel uncomfortable not knowing if the person speaking is telling the truth or merely acting. I think you have enuf subscribers and YT'ers that you could have accomplished this task without allowing 'actors'. For the record, my video is very real. Love you Zip.

  • wow i love this, found it thanks to thejakester1

    gonna do it!

  • Love this idea

  • i think this is a great idea,i hope lots of poeple make responses to this! but only if the line is true to them!5 stars baby love and hugs~heidi,

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

    How the hell is a dead person going to make a video??

  • I like the idea! I tried to help, even though I'm not gay, I am able to relate to some of the sentence's :) Good luck with this project Zipster!

  • "I am the woman who died when the EMTs stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual" .

    It should be noted that ghosts rarely make videos.

  • u r awesome

  • I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn't have to always deal with society hating me.

    I'm the person who thinks the answer to freeing oneself from the paralysis of societal hatred and guilt is to foster within that society a culture opposed to hatred.

    It's a good work, and well done, Zip. Thanks for this.

  • I am the person ashamed to tell my own friends I'm a lesbian, because they constantly make fun of them.

  • Wow, so many of these comments refer to dead people, how can you BE that person. This needs a little editing.

  • Do you only want people to read those sentences if they physically apply to them. I don't think people should say it if it isn't true, that seems disrespectfull to me.

  • One of them should read, "I am the male partner of twenty seven years of the man who died alone in the hospital bed because they would not let me into the room" Otherwise, I doubt you will get too many responses from dead people.

  • "I live at the stone age"

  • my first video response ever is going to be for this project- i am PROUD!!!

  • Like dude can you wait a day cos I so wanna do this but its like 1 in the morning here. But ill repost one for you in the morning. great idea.

    Lovs it

  • can i do a different one "I am the boy who cant be himself because he's afraid what others will think"

  • Sure you can!!

  • this was beautiful. i'm 100% straight, but i totally agree.

  • im on it...ill do it tonight...

  • I think this is my first actual response to your videos Zip. Although I don't fit into any of those categories or anything like that I just wanted to write and say this idea is Awesome, I am glad this is happening, I am not gay, lesbian or anything like that but it is a really cool thing to do. I hope it turns out as you envision it.

    Peace

  • hi its me beth ward i dont think you got my last message so i will tell u again id would just love it if u mention me in the next video please im 12 live in stockport england thank you

  • I am on it. All my love.

    xx Looney xx

  • Hey Zipster. While I cannot relate to any of the lines either, I'll add my own. "I'm the person who believes in the rights of all people to live their existence with dignity, honor and love, something that no man's laws can dictate, diminish or deny and I believe in equality for everyone who cares enough to be a part of the world at large without expecting that anyone else needs to be like them to live their life free of prejudice, hate or rejection just because they aren't the same".

  • So everyone is acting and it didn't really happen to them? hmmmm I think I'd rather see and hear the truth. How will we know which one is speaking from a true experience? Mrs. GeezerArt

  • even if it didnt happen to them, it is still meaningful and shows people who it HAS happened to that they have support and love.

  • I understand that these things happen and are terrible but in my opinion it's misleading. The true people this happened to have my support and love!

  • I feel it's the message that's important...not the messengers!?

  • Have to agree wholeheartedly with that comment.

  • Sorry Zip, just need to mention I was agreeing with geezerarts comment, not yours. I don't think 'actors' should speak these lines, this is You Tube, it's suppose to be about REAL people. Please don't say the lines unless they specifically relate to you or someone you know. If you want to watch actors, turn on the television.

  • stuff like this can come back to haunt a person, even if it's untrue!

  • it shows that it is a video response.

  • What a powerful message thanks for having this out here . Your helping alot of people.

  • What amazing video and love the concept Tons of hugs ♥Mel®

  • Great idea!

  • I am the fat girl with pimples and couldn't ride the school bus because it might fall over when I boarded.

    Peace be with you.

  • I would have loved to be a part of this because I identify with No.5.

    Unfortunately I can't speak. Bad case of tonsilitis. heh

  • you could write the words on paper!

  • I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn't have to always deal with society hating me.

  • Zipster I had to post a vid response and I truly loved this idea!

  • I liked your video and would like it to be in the finished project.

  • It's the end of the day and my makeup has worn and isn't befitting of one of the transexual lines. I'll see what tomorrow brings.

  • For you and Gothictier, I'm in! Great cause, not so one dimensional at all. Found a line that many others have found, but I dig the whole anti-hate idea and I'm proud to provide my 2 cents :) - John Reagan

  • "I am the woman who died when the EMTs stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual." This woman was Tyra Hunter (1970-1995) of Washington, D.C. our nation's capital. The capital city's motto is, "Justitia Omnibus" Justice for All.

  • It's rather disheartening that people say we shouldnt do this because its a "negative message". THIS IS REALITY. This is how it is. These are things that have happened and continue to happen. I guess we cant make people aware. We just have to sit and take it. What a world.

  • I don't remember a happy part in "Mississippi Burning." Sometimes the message is the message, and needs to be told the way it is. Not everything in this world is puppies and ice cream.

  • Thank you.

  • I think you should make two vids with these responses. While I respect your intentions to focus on the gay aspect of it, it seems pretty clear that you have struck a universal chord outside of that. Revenge of the Nerds is a great movie cuz we have all been nerds.

  • what a wonderful idea! i would do a vid response, but i see you already have way more then 22.

  • You should probably look up "ignorant" in the dictionary.

  • this is an amazing project...i love it....i have many friends that can relate to alot of these lines....

    this is a great thing

  • Hateful and nasty argumentative things just don't hang with me. Everyone and every being has a right on this earth...and shouldn't have any disrespect to them in any manor or form, don't ever harm anyone...so be it. It is your business to what you fancy, but don't hurt anyone.

  • Posted a reply - hopefully it'll be something you guys deem fit to be involved.

    Regardless though, you have my support. =)

  • Very cool zip and i see ya 20+ responses already.

    5 podcasting101 stars

  • This is so beautiful. Some of the videos gave me goosebumps. Amazing.

  • i added a vid response. if you guys like it great, if not let me know.

  • kool!

  • This is going to be fantastic! What a wonderful idea and thank you for getting the ball rolling.

  • I think a lot of people are missing something here. These dialogues don't have to relate to you. We are doing a PSA commercial. We need actors and actresses to read these dialogues. Obviously someone who physically fits the dialogue is desired (male, female, couple, child). But the situation of the dialogue doesn't have to apply to you IRL. I mean come on, theres dialogue from dead people here! Thanks! =)

  • I've lost too many.  Between a fatal bashing and the fucking plague. How about: I am one of the THOUSANDS that died because the Reagan Revolution didn't think fighting a "gay disease" was worth the research money.

  • Real Love is unconditional. I am a woman who will NOT avoid you just because you're "diferent", who will still listen when you speak a diferent language, who will hold you if you're hurting... I could tell you several reasons for not doing it... But i rather focus on the ONE Reason i have for doing it... I AM HUMAN! Aren't we all??

    Thank you Zipster, best of luck with this project.

    *mwah*

  • I will respond as soon as I can find my misplaced camera.

  • Zipster, I gotta say I'm upset with you. You dont' talk to me anymore, don't say anything if I comment on your videos, and you dont' comment on my videos =(

  • Drama queen. (Not you Zip...haha)

  • ...um, you didn't even get my message and it wasn't to you anyway. I love Zipster I was just stating one thing.

  • Another wonderful idea. :)

  • great idea, good work zip

  • i <3 u zip, ill try to post a video response

    xoxoxoxo

  • ZIPSTER!!! I love you for doing this! This is great. You are very very very very incredible for giving the people on YouTube the opportunity to take part and let out their feelings and show this world what people have to deal with..I personally cannot relate to any of the lines on that list..but to everyone who can, Put up a video response cause this is for a great cause, Good job Zipster ^.^ Hats off to you. {{Isn't wearing a hat?}} lol

    {{Holy Shit. The last line is Matthew Shepard}}

  • going to Maui, going to miss your vids!! take care and see you when i get back next Wed!!

  • This is looking at the issue from a negative point of view. Maybe when you finish this one, you can do one from a positive point of view. My brother died of AIDS in 1994.

  • Great idea, Zip. I'll be watching as always.

  • sorry zipster im working on my own haters video for some one else sorry i still like ya tho!

  • thats really sweet, im lucky enough to be in a pretty accepting background at home, at school not so much, i dont really talk anymore at school and try to get unnoticed, except for a couple of mes amis

  • Hey Zip.

    I've been urging myself to finally get around to making a video - and I really want to be part of this message video.

    So I'm going to be working on a perfect line for it. And upload it within the next hour or so.

    Good on you for keeping awareness up. =)

  • hey there zipster i would post a video response but my camera is buggered at the moment and plus none of them relate to me :(

  • Hey Zip sorry I can not relate to the lines, but I think it is a good idea that you are doing this. I have many friends that have been through many of the things on the list. so I support you 100% and sorry again that I can not contribute.

  • i responded and put my explanation within my description for the one i chose its the only one i could identify with. nice one zip love jodie x

  • Omy Zip....Please let me help out. It would mean so much to me. What if my kids participated??? They have been gay bashed just because they have two moms...Please let me know...I'm very interested!

  • I think it would be great if your kids participated...just so you don't think it's harmful to them emotionally or any other way!

  • Good idea G!!!! It would make Dakota and Noel very happy to make this kind of video! And me very happy to see it.... of course it would make Zip and everyone else too... pretty neat I saw your comment here... if you think about all the people and comments that go around it is pretty neat to see someone you know.. kinda like going to another state and seeing someone you know there.. lol.. i know, i am a dork :)~ love ya!

  • Ok now hear this! I'm just a watcher and comment guy on youtube so this had better be good shit comming from all of you. (he he). I can't wait. Good Luck Zipster.

  • Good job Zipster

  • you should use a song by antony and the johnsons (if you are going to use music) that would rock!

  • Hey, Buddy! Good to know you're out there and that I have your support. You know I love your stuff!! (I still want a BUFUMUFU t-shirt to wear in my vids!!)

  • don't tell anyone but its already wrapped and ready to send tomorrow

  • im gonna add my own line if thats ok, "I am the girl who is misunderstood because she looks different than the norm."

  • DO IT!!

  • What a wonderful thing to do! I can't wait to see the end result! :-)

  • im sorry i cant relate to any of these lines. Members of my family including my mother (who i am so lucky to have because she almost lost custody because of being a lesbian) could relate though. i wish there was some way i could contribute!

  • Maybe you could film your mother?

  • This list makes all gay people look like weak victims. It adds up to an endless whine. Where are the lines like I am the proud cocksucker who says fuck you to those who don't like it? Or I am the drag queen who nailed a cop with my spike heel at Stonewall?

  • I think it's important to highlight people's negative experiences in a world that can still be very hostile to gays and lesbians. You make a good point, however - maybe we should do a follow-up relating people's positive experiences.

  • I think my life, especially on YouTube, IS a reflection of positive experiences in the past and yet to come!! Thanks for the support!

  • Your life is much more positive than this list. That is one of the reasons I admire you so much, my dear.

  • WOW, interesting take on the whole thing! Much respect to you, my friend!

  • The language I use would not be appropriate (you know how filthy I really am), but along with the slights and attacks and denials against us, our history includes a lot of fighting back. I need that part of our history or I can get very depressed.

  • Thank you. I thought these were all rather sad "I am a victim" type comments, so I really just can not relate to these weaknesses. Where are the strong gays and lesbians in the choices offered?

  • I am a rape survivor...but I am female so I don't relate.

  • I cant relate to any of them personally either, but the father of my children is Gay. Im the mom who raised her kids to be accepting and loving of their father, becasue first of all, he was their father, and he loved them. It spills over into, they are accepting of anyone becasue tolerance is just another word for grace.

  • I think it is a brilliant idea Zip, but I'm glad to say I don't relate to any of them. I read your reply to someone about being an actress for a few minutes, but I don't really feel able to do that. Sorry. xx

  • It's all good, Sue...your support is what is needed also!

  • I have things to relate, but not specifically to what is stated here. I think this message is so way important though! Like I am going to ask my hubby to buy a cam on his way home from work today! Hope I can help. Props to you for doing this!

  • Too many of these I've seen in the close world around me, its pretty horrible... good luck with the video ;)

  • Oh Zip,! I would love to do it, but I have to get a new cam :( mine broke. So, am depressed can't get in on this one!

  • Do they all have to be negative, because I was the girl who modeled the hand-knit poncho in the school fashion show, made by the guy that everyone thought was weird for crocheting ponchos.

  • i dont really get this video... o well

  • This is a great idea !!!!

    Much Love,

    Sheryl : )

  • This is going to be so cool! Can't wait to see it.

  • Hmmmmm. People's experiences of bigotry and discrimination are very diverse. Would it be possible to write create our own lines?

  • It certainly would!!!

  • I have a good idea for one of those and I'm going to work on it ASAP and post it :o)

  • I can't use any of them.

  • Your support will be just as powerful!!!
