Anna Paquin
In a video campaign to support gays rights Anna Paquin revealed she is bisexual. Anna is an advocate for "Give a Damn" the web based anti discrimination organization run by singer Cyndi Lauper.
"I'm bisexual," Paquin said, before adding that "one hate crime is committed approximately every hour of every day in this country."
Cyndi Lauper spoke of her anti-discrimination campaign "I've come to realise equality means a lot to people who don't have it and that, as a straight person, I have a responsibility to stand up for gay and transgender people each and every day."
I deeply support anti discrimination as I an Bipolar and lose jobs because of it. I also will not marry until gays and lesbians can marry. But it still begs an unanswered question for me: Why do we have to state our sexual preference? Why does it matter whose gay, straight or bi?
It saddens me that our sexuality cannot be a private affair, that everyone needs to know. It should be no ones business because another persons sexuality doesn't affect me, or you or anyone. This is one screwed up world we live in.
