If you're black and homophobic, too me you're a hypocrite, it doesnt make sense to me how a black person can be homophobic after shit black people went through, they were discriminated just like how gays are bein discriminated, discrimination is discrimination no matter what and its WRONG, again if you're black and homophobic you're a hypocrite...as mixed person, black and Puerto Rican and Dominican, and straight person, I am pro-LGBT.

Wanda is so genius. That analogy of coming out as "black" was hilarious!

@cynicalandbored OMG! THANKYOU! Exactly what i say when people say I made the "Choice" to be gay! Why would I or anyone CHOOSE to be hated, bullied, and bashed? Thanks for pointing out the ass and penis thing! xD Homophobes seem to be really obsessed with gay anal sex... lol. For one, they need to realize that STRAIGHT people do anal sex too! And many gay men do oral sex! Also, being gay isn't ONLY about sex! There's love with gay relationships too! I wish people would understand that! :(

@lilfenty3292 THANKYOU! Finally someone said it! You're right! Black people of ALL people in the USA especially SHOULD be the FIRST people to support LGBT! THEY know what it's like to be hated and discriminated against! It pisses me off on how hypicritical some people can be!

It's hard for me to tell if she hates being black or if she hates whites for her being black...she hasn't lived long enough to be mistreated any more for being black than I have for being born white. God made us all one color in His eyes. I learned as a child that we are all color blind and everyone is green...the only difference is Wanda is dark green and I am light green.

@garra6992 its probably the only reason gays were ever hated, religion. homophobia is not an in built thing, animals r not homophobic to the gay animals

@iEatQueso Last year, the Tea Party backed a far-right wing conservative pledge stating, among other prejudicious things that "a child born into slavery in 1860 was more likely to be raised by his mother and father in a two-parent household than was an African-American baby born after the election of the USA's first African-American President". There're people who, even not being racist, support those groups only because they're sure they won't give homosexuals any rights.Dangerous...
