    A little late to the party but it really deserves an art tribute. Finally! :D (Big Grin)

     We will march toward equality one step at a time ‪#‎LoveWins‬

    When I posted this on my Fb, I receive quite a few comments from bigots who told me they will no longer follow me due to my support of LGBT rights. So I'll just say this now to those on dA who are planning to unwatch me for this post, good riddance! :D (Big Grin)

    Congrats, US!!

    Don't congratulate us yet. Many states, especially in the southern areas, are still denying and rejecting the idea of gay marriage in the areas and refuse to accept it.
    It's pretty much the same with how segregation was finally abolished and there was still tons of racism all around. Well, technically there is still tons of that going around even today.

    It's going to take a few more years before anything actually worth praising could be said.

    That's how I feel: It's one thing to flip the switch, but the elderly and misguided take far too long to adjust to the light. Purging decades of inbred hatred out of society will take a long, long time. I eagerly await other first-world nations to follow the trend, however. I'm looking at you, South Korea, Malaysia, Hong Kong... JAPAN.

    Of course, the war is not won by far, but an important battle was won. It should be an incentive to move forward. Victory is not a fairy tail... If you will it, that is (guess, what famous phrase I paraphrased in this sentence).
