RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

I'm going to be a huge target at school tomorrow
Quote:To prevent myself from being attacked by the religious crowd, I'll keep this short: homosexuality is not a mental disorder. Homophobia is.
Until you can find me indisputable proof (ie, no Bible shit) that homosexuality is evil, I will continue my acceptant stance on homosexuality.
Also, assuming I'm gay myself because I stand up for gays is an illogical fallacy.
All because of this block of text I posted on Facebook.
I posted it less than an hour ago and I've reached over 30 comments regarding my sexuality, how I'm going to Hell, and etc.

“Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in another’s way.” (Romans 14:13) - My Favorite verse in the bible
This ^, use it as you see fit (it really makes christians angry hen you use the bible against them).

Re: I'm going to be a huge target at school tomorrow
heres an argument
gay marriages mean less pregnacies meaning something to combat overpopulation
it's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.

Re: I'm going to be a huge target at school tomorrow
next time don't try to show how you feel and what you think on the internet or other irl public places... it's not worth it, let them live their shitty lives like they want to, fuck em... i've learned this lesson a long time ago. Keep your thoughts to yourself or close friends who you can really trust.

Re: I'm going to be a huge target at school tomorrow
I dont mean to offend anyone here, but fuck the religious crowd. Its none of their concern about how somebody else lives their life. It doesn't affect them any, so why should it matter to them.

Aside from some random guy shout "HAHA FAG" and point at me in the middle of a crowded cafeteria, nothing that could be considered 'bad' happened.
