It Gets Better BYU - Matt

Students from Brigham Young University share a personal message for the It Gets Better Project.
USGA (Understanding Same-Gender Attraction) is an unofficial group of Brigham Young University students, faculty, and friends who wish to strengthen families and the BYU community by providing a place for open, respectful discussions on the topic of same-gender attraction. USGA is not an appropriate forum for angry, vulgar, or profane remarks of any kind, nor for expressions of antagonism against any person or organization. In order to foster an environment of respect and understanding, we ask all participants to be respectful of BYU, the Church, and the beliefs and experiences of others.
Find USGA on Facebook at: groups/byuusga
The It Gets Better Project was created to show young LGBT people the levels of happiness, potential, and positivity their lives will reach -- if they can just get through their teen years. The It Gets Better Project wants to remind teenagers in the LGBT community that they are not alone - and it WILL get better.
The website www.itgetsbetter.org is a place where young people who are lesbian, gay, bi, or trans can see how love and happiness can be a reality in their future. It's a place where straight allies can visit and support their friends and family members. It's a place where people can share their stories, take the It Gets Better Project pledge, watch videos of love and support, and seek help.
If you are considering suicide or need help, call the Trevor Project now: 866-4-U-TREVOR (866-488-7386).

Matt, thankyou for standing up in support of gay mormons. I love my best friend, i've loved every homosexual mormon i've ever met, and there have been alot all across the world. some are out, some are not, some are married, some have killed themselves and i miss them. 2 of my best friends individually have gay parents, one of whom's fiance left him because of it. people like us who support people are important, keep doing what your doing. it gets better, people like you and i help that happen, x

Hey Matt - thank you for your support, you're a powerful influence for good. Your GLBT friends are lucky to have you. Be careful though, there's very little hotter than a str8 friend who is totally comfortable in his own sexuality and is cool hanging with gay friends :-) Just kidding, you're a star.
