Ohhhh Buzzfeed

I, like everyone else loves to spend time on buzzfeed. As I was wasting time there I came across the buzzfeed titled "34 Reasons It’s A True Tragedy Tom Daley Isn’t Gay". As I made my way down the page I couldn't help but to feel ashamed of what the author was saying. His claims made no sense at all. One of his claims was, "Because he likes beaches and lots of gay people like beaches too". WHAT?!!! Since when do you have to be gay to enjoy the beach?

I scrolled down to read the comments and it seemed like no one else found offense to this except for one person! That was probably the most shocking thing for me. What has our society come too? How can reading something like this be okay? Do we ever stop to think about the other person's feelings?

Anyway here is the link:
