WE WORE PURPLE TODAY, OCT. 19, TO TAKE A STAND AGAINST BULLYING! Here is me and some of my close friends wearing purple. They have been really eager to help me out with this pictures. I have also been able to inform other friends why we wore purple and it was amazing to see them wanting to join and sad to be unaware of this. :) Well, the only conversion done by a gay person (me) here is turning straights (all of my friends here are straight) into allies, just to make it clear that’s the only “conversion” I can make. I want to thank to all of my friends who joined me today as well as others who supported me. They are simply so dear to me and I really appreciate their help today. P.S. I am the one who is holding the paper with “I am against bullying” text, it was an instant idea so I know it kinda looks simple, just in case any of you wonder.
