I always use my mother as an example... And I have my reasons for this, after all, she is a summary of popular teaching passed down from generation to generation... Sometimes (but only very few times, "vox popoli, vox Dei" – in Latin, means "The voice of the people is the voice of God"). The fact is that my mother always uses a very popular saying that says: pepper in other people's edi is refreshment... Mine, mona, with Milani currants, please!!!
Well, my scandals... A problem only seems to become visible when it starts to get out of control and when other sectors of society (especially the dominant sectors) start to suffer from the effects of some type of action or reaction. A very typical example of this is the case of violence. While the violence is on the outskirts, in the hills or in the favela, the concern of the government (and also of society as a whole) is minimal. However, if this violence goes down the hill or beyond the "border" between the suburbs and the city center, then it will be seen as a real problem.
It’s the same thing with homophobia (social or lethal).
While the homophobic attacks (which always happened) were against transvestites who work as sex workers in different parts of the city or against the "fag" from the suburbs who are attacked by gangs inside schools or on the streets of the neighborhood, then, no This is homophobia and, often, the victim is considered guilty of the aggression he or she suffered.
"Ah, but the transvestite is on the street, she is exposing herself to the dangers common to the world of prostitution", some claim – that deputy whose name I refuse to say is one of them. I ask myself: What right does a person have to mistreat, curse, attack someone because they are a transvestite and a prostitute? Yes, but I myself have seen this scene happening several times. A bunch of retarded heterosexuals who take to the streets with the sole intention of "making fun of transvestites", as they say.
Another very common scene, which happens every day and which greatly increases school dropout rates, on the part of LGBT people, is the gratuitous aggression against "queers", as they are kindly treated by so-called "normal" students. That's normal, my love, there's nothing... I myself suffered from bullying when I was at school, nothing very serious, but it could have caused me enormous trauma... Thank God that wasn't what happened.
While this homophobia happens like this, with "different people", the authorities and society seem to turn a blind eye to the problem. However, this disease (I can't classify homophobia in any other way) is going beyond the limits of the ghetto and is reaching the city's upscale neighborhoods, or else, claiming victims who are not even homosexual, like the case of the father and son of São João from Boa Vista who were attacked because they were identified as a possible homosexual couple.
And then, it's time for it to rain and hypocrisy to overflow. Everyone is moved, even revolted against such crimes. Now that the victims are no longer those who are normally placed on the margins of society, homophobia now exists and is a problem that urgently needs to be debated and combated. Basically, these ironies (if they weren't tragic, they would even be comical), after all, it is quite possible that now, after an attack in which two heterosexual men (father and son, by the way) were gratuitously attacked for being mistaken for a gay couple, the law against homophobia will make some progress.
However, I still doubt that religious, powerful and limited company would be moved to write a single sentence on their Twitters, if the attacks were with a transvestite, for example...
I allow myself to say that such commotions are nothing more than solidarity for the English to see...
The message is given...
Kiss, kiss, kiss… I went…
