"I'd rather my son be a homosexual than a thief." That's what I heard this Carnival Tuesday by chance from a neighbor. Luckily, she wasn't talking to me, but to her friends. Honestly, I was shocked by the comment, despite it being from my grandmother's time. But, in her time, at least, people preferred to steal than burn the dough. Even so, what scared me was not the fact that I had been elevated to the level of a criminal. On the contrary. Why can't thieves be gay? Does one thing exclude the other?
Although there is controversy, just as not every stylist, makeup artist or soap opera actor is gay, not all thieves are exclusively straight. They can also be gay in their spare time, why not?! Many gays steal, yes. Otherwise, how could we explain the expression "I gave it to Elza", so common among the frilly crowd? Whoever thinks I'm wrong, should throw, or better still, steal the first platform sandal! Well, it's assumed that her son isn't gay He's not even a thief. He's just straight. Good for his mother who's so worried. But if he was a thief and, on top of that, he was gay?
In any case, since one thing excludes the other, if it is to die of grief, let it be a minor grief. After all, being homosexual has its advantages. At least, the day I have children, that is, if I have them, I won't have to worry about whether I would like him to be a donkey or a straight man. Because, since one thing excludes the other, I much prefer the first option. Or am I being prejudiced in elevating donkeys to the level of SOME straight? In any case, whether he is straight or donkey, gay or a thief (or all together), what really matters is being healthy and happy. And that's it.
