Homosexual Stereotypes

Homosexuality is when a person is characterized by having sexual attractions between people of the same sex. Homosexuals include males (gays) and females (lesbians). Homosexuals are gradually growing and becoming a bigger part of our world, especially in professional sports, and are slowly gaining more acceptance in some parts of the world, but in some parts are still struggling and having to face many harsh stereotypes. One such stereotype is, that they are weak and do not play sports, they are just not meant for it. Another such stereotype surrounding gays and lesbians is that they all have high-pitched voices. At least they are slowly getting more acceptance in their community as George Clooney said, “At some point in our lifetime, gay marriage won't be an issue, and everyone who stood against this civil right will look as outdated as George Wallace standing on the school steps keeping James Hood from entering the University of Alabama because he was black.”
