well, this is *general* chat, so theoretically, you can say any crazy thing you like.

Hey guys I just really need to vent so here it goes.
I'm so sick of being surrounded by homophobic assholes. Today received an email from a co worker that was sent to all staff. It is an email that has been forwarded on from a Christian group. All about same sex adoption in south Australia and why you should vote that no on same sex couples adopting on some poll. Seriously they are just a bunch of judgmental ass holes.

People are idiots aren't they? This is like that polital party last year comparing same sex patenting to child abuse. It's hard to believe that people still feel this way. Aside from being gay myself, I'm a nanny and have worked with 3 same sex families now and I can honestly say the kids are so happy and well adjusted, all that really matters is having parents who love and support their children. Why is it so difficult for people to understand such a simple concept?

Well its a christian school so i am pretty sure the discrimination act doesnt apply. I am starting to think about looking elsewhere though. I just don't like change and the uncertainty of changing jobs.

I hope so! If she doesn't want to be on here then fair enough, but i hate the thought of her leaving because she doesn't feel she fits in! Alien, if you're reading this- COME BACK!!! :-)
