Nature vs. Nurture

I decided to pose for the NOH8 Campaign because I wanted to publicly reject the bigotry and the hate that I was taught by my parents. Growing up, I heard gay slurs from my father and disgusted remarks from my mother. These comments stuck with me, not because I agreed with them, but because even as a young child I knew they were wrong. As an adult, I can now reject the homophobia I was exposed to as a little girl and support the LBGTQ community, of which I consider myself a part...

That's right mom and dad, your daughter likes girls; what are you gonna do with all your hate now?
