It Gets Better ~ Henry

Life gets so much better for gay youth later in life. And we are living proof of this. If you are gay and struggling with accepting yourself or struggling with peer harassment and are considering harming yourself, PLEASE take our word for it that life DOES get better.
Happiness is inevitable if you just persevere. You won't be alone forever. Just remember: the best vengeance you can enact on your abusers is to live your life to the fullest.

wow your childhood must of been fucked, Turning out gay, being really feminine and being GINGER! You must of broken a lot of mirrors in a previous life to turn out like that



[HenhousetheRed]

@MrBevbob Actually, my life is pretty fucking amazing right now. Better than ever. And being a red head has only ever added beneficial aspects to my life.

Pay attention next time.

hey.. i am a bisexual 12 year old, and i've only come out to some of my best friends. i dont want to get an earing because its really blatant and i dont want to make girls think that im unavailable, also i'm not ready for EVERYBODY to know. could you suggest something i could wear? i was wearing a little rainbow bracelet for a while but i lost it... :(

[HenhousetheRed]

@peanutmaster1231 If you're not ready for everybody to know then I don't suggest wearing anything special to signify your sexuality. If you're in a bad place, just don't do it.

I don't feel the need to wear rainbows or pink triangles. There are far better ways to express who you are. Just be yourself.

@shawnslover4e you are not born gay, people use it as an excuse, get over the fact that people make themselfs like the dick, and enjoy those aids!!!!

[HenhousetheRed]

@MRXNINJAWHO If you're not gay then how can you speak for us? Especially considering the mount of studies that have been done that basically prove human sexuality is a spectrum and that those who are gay cannot, and SHOULD NOT change. It's not an excuse. It's a fact.

I'm a lesbian & I'm damn proud of it. I'm an attractive person, which is hard for guys to get over. It's not that these guys can't get girls, or these girls can't get guys, it's the fact that the attraction is so much more beautiful. Maybe the hatred comes from you because you don't have the balls to come out? I've seen so many hate comments. You guys think what you want but it'll come back & bite you in the ass. Karma's a bitch.

[TheJak2300]

fag you guys can change you just dont get attention. if you like sticking dick in an ass do it in a girls ass

[agdolls4ever2]

Ohmigawd! I LOVE you!! You have so much personality and care for others!! I'm Bi, and I live in a very homophobic town, and I only told 2 of my friends...I just feel so trapped, and this video made me feel so much safer and really heightened my self esteem! GO YOU! <3

[mlckid09]

Alright then move out of the U.S and on to an island. You will not get harassed and made fun of and It would make the U.S. look better. I think it should get better for straight people too if gays left. Simple.

[applejoker21]

you're so brave

[glamoroustrash]

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences. Its great for celebrities and public figures to make them but its the videos (in my opinion) from people like you, me, and all the others who dealt with this everyday to have our voices. Very well spoken, amazing story, and you seem like an awesome person. Keep it up! You shoudlnt be camerashy..definitely would love to see more videos!

[SunDager]

great video as always and thx for posting it, and just FYI redheads rule ! i am not a redhead but omg, readheads make me so well you know ;) have agreat day and keep up the great video posting hugs

[jqlzp]

Your school sounds so messed up. Good you got through it though. That's sad there are still people like that I wouldn't have been able to make it through your situation that must have been hard :(. You should make more videos.

[maqeen]

your mom sounds like my mom she said the same thing jejeje bye the way your cute jejeje and believe in since i was younger i have came out and in all my life it wasnt much of bullying or verbal... i have always been accepet in every school i went to.

[tromboneman12321]

Dude don't be depressed. You're a badass and you know it. Dont worry about those assholes out there

[readawn]

OMG I love your glasses!!

[AliceItoko]

I really respect you for what you had to go through. I'm straight but I know what it's like to be really, really shy and have no friends, and have to stand up at the front of the class to talk to a lot of people that don't like you.

[LuvTommyJoe]

Thanks for doing this awesome video! Hope you do more.I don't get why some people think being gay, bi-sexual...whatever is a fucken choice?? People Are Born This Way!! Why can't people understand this?

[bdlilrbt]

[peanutmaster1231]

[peanutmaster1231]

@MRXNINJAWHO you are a complete christian douch bag who is going to hell and is going to burn their tiny little prepubescent penis off, and then have to live with what you have done to tons of innocent people who happen to be gay. :)
