I sometimes wish I wasn't attracted to men so I'd actually have some justification to call myself LGBT

Why though? What is the motivation behind this desire to be 'LGBT'? I'll bet she's never asked herself why being 'LGBT' is so important to her. I'm sure she's struggling with multiple issues and I wish her the best but it's really hard for me to feel sorry for her. Because it's clear she sees us like the cool kids club at school. We aren't a club, and having your sexuality constantly called gross, fake, unnatural, etc really isn't something you should try to identify into. Not having the same rights as straight people in some parts of the world isn't 'fun' or 'trendy'. It's a shame it took her almost 8 years for her to realize she was being creepy.

Blame tumblr for that... they would glamorize the LGBT community and say shit like "ewww you are straight!"

And for young impressionable teenage girls that wish to be accepted and loved that can leave a mark on your idea of yourself... so yea
