Pray Away | Official Trailer | NetflixFinished Netflix’s “Pray Away” yesterday, and my heat ached a lot during the doc. I’ve only realized my identity in the last few years so I definitely had it better than everyone in the film, but it hurts seeing people internalize the hate directed toward them and pass it on to other LGBTQ people when they’re supposed-->

--> to help and care for each other. It’s scary that many of the leaders of the “ex-gay” movement were LGBT people themselves; seeing them being used as publicity stunts was profoundly sad. I’m glad for the acceptance we’ve been getting in recent years, but the doc highlights that people still think this way and are still hurting people with their ideas.
And it’s not like everyone in there were doing it out of malice; they see the pain LGBT people face, what with being rejected by family to the AIDS crisis, but their solution was completely backwards, yet they fully believe that this was the right way to go.
Overall this was very insightful, I love learning about LGBTQ history :-)

你寫的字讓我想到Red, white and royal blue.我好喜歡Alex很坦率的接受他自己是個bi,然後他身邊所有親近的人也都自然地接受。(總統媽媽的反應尤其讚)像yuri on ice那樣很自然的不用特別說明的,單純接受就是一個人喜歡另一個人應該是最理想的境界。

kniomi: 如果是那樣該有多好啊,我從一開始就接受了,沒有覺得這些感情是錯誤的,但要讓其他人也從我的角度來看這件事還是有困難。在還沒跟他們出櫃的家人旁邊看這部電影特別尷尬😅。自己也不覺得這是個秘密,畢竟已經在網路上「出櫃」了,但總有一天還是會跟家人說的。

好高興你不用懷疑自己,自我糾結實在是讓人心疼。至於其他人的眼光嗎?我熱愛的滑冰選手說過,我只在乎我在乎的人,其他意見和我沒關係。相信家人會愛你的。
所以我在兩位信也們身上都有找到共同點,杉木很快就坦率地接受了他對鈴木的感情,但鈴木卻還是會糾結,雖然這兩種方式是相反的但還是很relatableㄏㄏ。
謝謝你的回覆,第一次看到的時候有點想哭fisjdjssjsb。覺得能察覺自己是雙性戀是件美好的事,希望身邊的人也能了解。
