Even so, while actions speak louder than words, words are sometime much easier than action. We should not condemn those who are not able to make a stand. Everyone does what they feel they are able to do. Not everyone can take the risks that some people do as a daily part of life. No person is more or less important than any other in our struggled for basic human rights.
Equality means everybody.
When all is said and sifted, people should be free to be whomever they feel they need to be. Coming out means being able to feel good about yourself in all aspects of your life. Coming out means allowing yourself and others to see you as a real, healthy, complete person. Coming out means taking risks, for better or worse. Coming out means taking a stand against oppression of people for any reason.
