Gay

"Ew, you're being so gay."

So being gay is illegal now?

"Dude, stop faking it."

Do you want me to change?

"What happened to you to make you feel this way? It must have been awful."

Should I lie to everyone now?

"With enough therapy and religion, you'll be normal again."

Do I really need therapy?

"You're going to hell."

Am I a bad person now?

"You don't look gay."

I'm supposed to change how I look now?

"I can change you."

How?

"You just haven't had the right sex yet."

When will I?

"You probably have HIV."

What is that?
