when you think of something being normal, you automatically think that its that way for everyone else around you, right?
well... in a perfect world, maybe.
What happens, when there are people different than you? That don't have the same hair color as you? Don't wear the same clothes? You'd probably see past those differences
What about if that person was gay? things get a little bit more complicated there.
We all have grown up with this thought of heteronormativity surrounding us, and not even being aware of it. The fact that girls need to like ponies and pink and boys like sports and blue. Anything against that is considered wrong and immoral, and when someone goes against it, it causes a stir.
I think that we should throw out our preconceived ideas about what normal really is, and not let socially acceptable practices dictate what is right for people.
