Here's an email I have received about the Student Non-Discrimination Act:
“We are all asked to sign a number of petitions each year in relation to various advocacy efforts. This petition for H.R. 998, the “Student Non-Discrimination Act”, is extremely important for the welfare of LGBT youth across America. Please sign and share.
You can also send a note to your United States representative or senator at POPVOX."
I REALLY recommend that everyone send a personal letter via the POPVOX link. You have to sign up with the site but it’s worth it. Especially since most people are opposing this legislation (on the site). Please, please, send a personal letter.
Here’s my letter:
That’s what I think everyone needs to do in their letter - not just talk about their experience but also the impact on society this sort of crap makes. Talk about suicide and depression rates, talk not only about bullying in students but also in teachers, talk about how people are hurt based on “not acting like they should” even if they are cis and straight, talk about all kinds of bullying, talk about the impact it has on our now cynical and brutal society, talk about things that will appeal to everyone not just the LGBT-sympathetic.

I support H.R. 998: Student Non-Discrimination Act of 2011 because I know the problems bullying can have, especially in regards to the ideas of sexuality and gender.
When I was a young girl, I was constantly mocked for being “too much like a boy” and called a “dyke” and other nasty things, and had no friends because of it. I am bisexual, sure, but I never realized it until my adulthood - I refused to let myself feel towards anybody, especially other girls. I have a hard time connecting with the people around me because of my experiences with bullying, not just because of the attacks on my gender and perceived sexual orientation but also for other reasons. I think it’s time to take a stand on bullying, which is a real problem.
I’ve studied extensively into the fields of Sociology and Psychology. In a textbook, a study was cited where boys were ruthlessly attacked based on “fagginess”, and so in turn the boys would sexually harass and assault the girls to “prove their manhood” and try to stop other boys from bullying them. It’s time to put a stop to this kind of behaviour which teaches our children dangerous things that have a serious impact on society when they reach adulthood.

A loooooong time away.
In the words of the immortal George Takei… Hello. You said it in his voice. You know you did. Heh.
But truly hello everyone. My name is Bryce, otherwise known here as castallen, one of the co founders of this group. It has been a very, very, very long time since myself or any other founder or admin has been active.
And yet, on my return, I still see more people joining the group. People trying to submit artwork. People with faith. Honestly I was quite surprised. I had thought my own long absence, and that if the other founders and admins, would have killed the group, especially since at the time we had such strict rules regarding subm
pan/bisexuals are both and equally vald
(smol rant, I might have typos or wrote the opposite thing then I actually mean)
If you identify as pansexual/romantic, you are valid.
I know there are people out there who will put you down for what your sexual/romantic orientation is, but that's the cold hard truth. Not all people are going to accept you. I'd love it if you could just passively say your sexual/romantic orientation and no one would care.
Pan is not bi
Bi is not pan
Pan is not transphobic
Bi is not transphobic.
My definition of pansexuality is the sexual/romantic attraction to people of all genders, whether they identify with a specific gender or don't identify with a gend
