How're you guys doin'?

Today's video is going to be a little bit different.

Basically, I'm going on a rant.

I hope that's okay.

So to start off, as a lot of you know...

Growing up, I've been a little bit different than the typical "average" guy.

I cared about the way I looked,

tried to be fashionable, style my hair.

At school, I took music classes.

And did plays for theatre.

Those were all things that I did because I enjoyed doing them.

But to some people, me doing those things meant to them that I'm gay.

People wouldn't straight up say it to me,

but sometimes, they'd ask me if I'm gay,

and at first, that offended me,

whenever somebody did that, I would be like:

Pfft no! I'm not, I'm not gay, pfft I love girls,

Yeah!

Boobs, I like them!

But after a while, I was like:

Wait, why am I offended by this?

People say gay, homo, fag, in a way for it to be hurtful

as if it's a bad thing.

Being called those things shouldn't be offensive,

because it's not something to be offended by.

You see, I'm a pretty straight dude,

I'm mean sure, sometimes, I look at a picture of Zac Efron and I'm like...

But I'm pretty straight!

Now think about it,

if you said those gay slurs to a gay person,

you're just saying the obvious.

it's like if somebody came up to me and said:

"Dude, you're so straight! *scoff* Hetero!"

Like, wow, thank you, I had no f*cking idea

My eyes have been opened, thank you!

I just don't understand why people look down on other people

Even if they happen to be gay, it doesn't make sense!

How can you be mad about the way that somebody is?

Again, if somebody were to come up to me and say:

"Stop being half asian."

It doesn't work like that.

People are born the way that they are and,

even if you don't like that, it doesn't really concern you,

and there's nothing you can do about it,

so, why even bother?

I've actually had this video planned for about half a year

and I haven't done it because I've been scared.

The worst part about this video is that

I'm gonna get a lot more dislikes and hate comments on it than a lot of my other videos

Why?

Because I'm supporting the basic rights of human beings.

Just one second? Just one second?

That? That's f*cked up.

I just find it ridiculous that I can't be flamboyant,

like fashion,

or have certain interests without trying to be put down.

I can't go a single week on YouTube without seeing a comment calling me gay.

It's actually funny to me now because if anything

it's a compliment.

I hate to stereotype but usually, homosexuals are very well kept,

Look good,

and, they're successful in the entertainment industry,

so, thank you! I'll take that!

I'll be honest though,

Way, way back, I used to throw around gay slurs all the time.

I thought it was funny and I didn't really think about it too much

But I'd like to think that I've learned from then,

just like I've learned that sexist jokes are not okay,

and the word retard is straight up insensitive.

I used to think that homosexuality was wrong, and gross,

but then, I started to realize, that wasn't what I was thinking,

that's what everyone else thought.

But eventually, I caught on to this and I started doing this revolutionary thing called:

thinking for myself.

Wow.

I just find it dumb in the first place that someone would think lower of a group,

Just because they're not the same as them.

Heaven forbid that everyone isn't as perfect as you,

Sorry.

Can we just take a second and look at the fact that it's 2015, and this is still a problem?

I mean people still judge people based on their race.

Yeah, racism is still a thing.

What the f*ck.

Sorry about cussing in this video,

Actually, I'm not.

*Intense swearing ensues*

Well, I think that means that I should probably be done now.

Look, this whole video was my opinion,

Feel free to think whatever you want,

I get that. I'm sorry that this video wasn't as funny,

or upbeat as my other videos...

This was just something I wanted to talk about.

If you enjoyed the video, please give me a like,

and leave me a comment to let me know.
