Something awful happened today that makes me realise just how homophobic people can be. Lemme explain. So I’ve been bringing a smol pride flag to school each day to celebrate pride month. Today I had my pansexual flag with me and I realised it had fallen out of my pocket. Me and my friends went to the field to look for it and saw it by the Yr 7 picnic area. As I got closer I realised that it had been torn to shreds, dirtied and had the pole ripped off. We talked to a couple of boys and found out who did it, and my head of year is speaking to him tomorrow so he’ll likely get a detention, but it just scares me to know that people can be this homophobic. If they would do this to a flag, imagine what they’d do to a person. Edit: Total misunderstanding. It wasn’t the guy I thought it was, but rather another boy who thought it was a crisp packet and binned it not knowing what it was.
