It Gets Better


Dan and Terry

It Gets Better Project

Posted: Oct 4, 2010

Dan Savage and his partner Terry Miller share their stories about the difficult challenge of being a gay teen. If you’re “different” from the approved majority in any way, and if you’ve ever felt bullied or harassed for being who you are, watch this and remember, it gets better!

This video is good news as long as gays (males at least) entering their HS years understand they are going to be razzed.
Frankly, it was less encouraging to hear of how Dan or Terry got beat up, windows broken, and the car was defecated on.
A principal doesn't tell gay students in advance that their cars might be... desecrated.
