Dear journalists: Asking as a gay man, please quit using myself & people like me as a pawn to make headlines & sell more issues. You & I both know that heterosexuals like you will not allow my people to have rights equal to yours' on a federal level anytime soon & that you will always continue to discriminate against us as much as you possibly & legally can. You continue to state federal equal-rights are coming to drag readers in, but we both know it is a complete & total lie. Please quit using LGBT in your stories if they are nothing but another lie. Thank You.
