Description
Mostly Vent Art, but there's also a bit Headcanon to it:Rarity and AJ were the first openly gay couple in Ponyville, so they had to face some homophobia here and there, because in my Headcanon Ponyville is a conservative, traditional, small town. I guess Rarity had a point where she just felt like running away (seen here) to escape the hatred.
Vent Art because I'm really sick of the homophobia I encounter daily on the Internet, especially Youtube. People who think homosexuality is a "perversion" and such. I'm trying not to start a fight with them and I don't take them seriously - there's just no point in that, these people live in the middle ages.
But here I wanna say, since it's Pride Month, and in behalf of every member of the LGBTQ+ community and all its supporters:
Fuck you.
Love is love, peace out:

I'm lucky. I haven't been beat up or kicked out of my house. Some of my friends have though, one when he was a teenager. Β I was working on a project with two other people to make an official LGBTQ shelter in my town...but the project leader stopped working on it one day and never got back to me. I'm still not sure what happened...but it could have been that he couldn't ever get funding approved. Maybe it was just too hard or maybe it was just because my town's kinda backwards.

I suggest getting out of that town. It's simply not safe for people like us. Don't ever give up or lose hope, though. <3Β
The worlds slowly changing and there's more and more good representation.Β
So your parents are very homophobic then?Β

Yeah, that wouldn't be a bad idea. Sad but it's the truth.
Thanks! This town's still backwards and dumb but it's getting a teeny bit better, I think.
My parents aren't homophobic, though I haven't exactly come out to anyone but my mom. I'm just too nervous to tell my sisters and dad and I try to dissuade myself from telling them because they're busy or I think they don't care or something. My friend told me writing a letter helps but I haven't done that yet. I am worried that my grandma will ask me one day "Oh, so are you seeing a guy" or something. She wouldn't be happy about it for sure. Though luckily she's not the kind who'll try and hook people up.

Haha...possibly a lot older than I sound? Possibly kinda pathetic sounding. I'm thirty. I'd love to move to San Francisco but I'd need to have a better job since I probably wouldn't be able to pay rent at the moment. Rent's not so bad in my town so that's why I've stayed so long.

Oooh! I thought you were younger because of the "throw me out of the house".
Alright, I get it though. Then good luck for moving to San Francisco asap!

Haha, yeah. Sorry for the confusion. I did know a friend who was when he was a teen, but when I was a teen I didn't know my orientation. I guess because of that people might've thought I was straight.
Thanks! I've at least been to San Francisco and it's a really nice place.

I'm with you when you say you hate when people who doesn't like homosexuals. Like people should be able to love whoever without being treated like they shouldn't exist. I've dealt with this hatred so many times and I'm just sick of it! I mainly get angry because I'm like 50% Bisexual and 50% Asexual. And I also support LBGT Community and will fight anyone who goes against them. Plus my dad is a HUGE Homophobe and it makes me sad that I can't tell what my sexuality is. Anyway, Happy Pride Month! (I'm a bit lateπ )

Oh, nice! I'm 100% Bi I'm sorry your dad is like that, my advice is to just stay away from the topic (unless you feel the need to come out to him) and to distance yourself (if you can). We should just stay away from toxic people, but it's especially sad when they're in our own family.
And, thanks!

Iβve experienced this too. It sucks, and I mean SUCKS to encounter people like that. Love is love, and if they canβt understand that, itβs their problem.

I live in a town that's teeming with old Baptist homophobes. One of the myriad reasons why I stopped going to church is because I got sick of some dusty old fart talking about "shameful, sinful gays" and all that junk. Let's take a look at what Jesus said about gays. (rummages through the bible).
Oh. Nothing. Hm.Β
Love is love. Right on.Β

Indeed. I'm not religious, but I once was, and I remember that God loves all his children. Why would he or Jesus despise two people loving each other?Β

God, the world can be so cruel. I try not to develop a victim mentality; I am very proud of who I am and the struggles my community has overcome. But it hurts sometimes, it really, really hurts when I look into the eyes of a self-hating child who doesn't understand why they have this 'sickness.' It hurts when I see a grown up who is just so damn tired of their own selves because they world has taught them to be ashamed of who they are. And with every suicide, a light goes out in our beautiful, diverse community, and a light goes out in me as well.

That was very, very well said. Yesterday I was that tired adult, sometimes the hatred just exhausts you completely. But it will get better, I strongly believe that.

I try to avoid fights the most I can, they are a waste of time and they only make you feel bad and stressed. Sadly, you canβt avoid them all the time. And then you have to stand people who wonβt just change their minds.Β
But at least, society has turned a lot more accepting towards homosexuality, compared to the past years at least. Thatβs a start

Yeah, but not in every country. But I guess it'll get better with the years.
