THE WAY HE LOOKS

That’s it guys, show them to your homophobic peers and other friends who think belonging to this community is ‘abnormal’. Two of these have sad endings, while the rest have happy ones, sure to keep you guessing until the end! A warning: Keep a bunch of tissues ready too, just saying. After watching these, all I want to say is WE NEED MORE LGBT MOVIES! Comment below if you’ve watched any LGBT stories or are interested in watching one anytime soon. I’d love to hear from you. Also, start accepting people the way they are and make efforts to respect their preferences in life. Until next time 🙂
