Why would a silence raise awareness for anything, its the complete opposite of speaking out?

its just.. when you ask someone a question and they don't answer back.. it'll intrigue them. Then if you wanted to explain yourself the next day, you'd get a point across. I know my school just did a "Day of Silence" for Free The Children - a group for child slavery and crap just the other day - it was a great success.

Ahh fuck that, I have a reputation to keep, and the only way to do it, is discussing and maintaining my excellent social life.

God, I'm such a dick.

i don't normally talk at school so i had no problem with the day of silence at all. well, until i got pissed at my art class because of people arguing about how people would know whether a person were gay. it's so annoying about how people stereotype people and are so closed-minded about it.

No, partly because I have my GCSE exams in three weeks, and I want to ask questions. I don't give a shit about my sexuality at the moment, I'm concentrating on my future.

Secondly, as I don't care who 'respects' me or not. It's a personal opinion if you like gay people or not, just as if your racist, it's something dug into you and the only way to make people realise that theyr'e in the wrong is educating them on why it's not a bad thing.

And 'Pathetic Excuses'. I must have been imagining it when someone told me this was a voluntary act. Nobody has to do it, so nobody has to have an excuse not to. I'm only stating my excuses so it reaches your small brain that I can't be fucked doing a little silence.

I love your oxymoron. Silent people shouldn't be silent. It's like black people throwing white paint on one another to show they are black.

you have three weeks and you can't wait a day or the day before to ask questions?

i'm not sure how to approach the 2nd paragraph because you lose me there

and now that i think about it i can't imagen a scenario where i would be alright with people not doing this....so i kinda have to appoliguise for that of my personality flaw and why it's there is my own business...

and it's as simple as they shouldn't have to be quiet about being gay or trans or w/e, not your oxymoron...which my "small brain" can't see the connection to my "oxymoron"

now i'm a lil pissed at myself because i shouldn't have been pissed because the whole yelling only gets more yelling thing, but all i seem to hear is how people don't want to do it because of the inconvenience. so i'm sorry i got pissed...so all i can hope now is that your not going to get pissed at me...so ya plz don't>.<

Well fuck silence, lets have a t-shirt day with a scene from gay porn on the back and a loud speaker and soap box to get the message accross, it works far better.

Otherwise we could just carry on because there is no real persecution going on here, not compared to other situations such as the ever salient Tibet, or Burma, if you really want to fight injustice fight it were it is worse
