This'll be my last idea for a bit. Don't want to overstock myself.

In my world I get to look at all you people around who accept gays and such. Understandable. Enjoy that very much. Hell I'm bi. Though there will always be hate. People made up a conspiracy theory that we are planning some kind of evil plan to make us have special rights above others. Not really, hate me if you want I just want to have some equality to other couples. And maybe some continuity in comparison to other people, like if people oppress me let me be able to get back at them in the same way everyone else can. With law.

On this idea, let's make a new plan

Come into a small town in the Northwest. Another little hick lumber town down the line. Mesterton, Washington. It is filled with those away from those who feel so accepting. A large group of Religious Right. And you my characters get to play those who walk back and forth in this land. You can bash if you want to feel that awkwardness of treating another human being like an animal if you work it right. Or you can play on those feeling and be the edgewise, one of many who lie inside this land either hiding, or living with fear.

But once more this is still just an idea for now. How do you feel?

Sounds like it's too deep for this crowd. It.. sounds interesting, I just don't think I could think in that sort of a hateful manner.

Oh I had a multitude of ideas. And yeah it could be. One of the most horrible things that popped in was the hidden one.

The boy who is, but he can't show it or he'll lose everything he has worked for in his life in school.

So he sees that boy, that boy he could think was half cute at least. Braver than him, open about it, as his straight oblivious friends cheer him on, and he is forced to beat him, like he is just another one of the guys.

So really you don't have to hate, like that boy you can suffer on the inside, be a jerk on the outside. That or be one of those tortured ones.

Interesting concept, although it likely does require a particular amount of willingness to behave sadistically or, to some varying degree, cruel.

I've always liked deep, dramatic story-lines laced with their own quirks and moments. It just adds some interest to an idea. When everything is peachy, it isn't exactly the greatest of story-lines in the world. XD At the same time, it might be just a little too heavy; things aren't that horrible. At least I've yet to uncover grave animosity towards the GLBT communities within the towns I've lived in [and most have been Southern, Suburbian neighborhoods. Ironically, I've seen more hate in the city I live in now than I ever did in the suburbs].

While I think the idea is nice, I think it's laid on just a little too heavy to have a whole town or something really pouring on these guys. That's what I'm picking up, anyway. It's more logistic to think that there would be set antagonists against the protagonists and a more neutral atmosphere surrounding the setting.

I could give it a wing, though. I've been looking to pitch the drama somewhere to entertain myself with some theme and conceptual storyline. Not to mention I'm just Rp-starved. XD -jest- Kidding, really; I do think it's a'ight. It's just a little too centered on the negative, and I've never experienced that, or known anyone who has experienced that - even those who live in "bible-thumping" / less accepting towns.

Now it isn't like the whole town is doing it all the time. People have to sleep. And people have things to do. Hate cannot consume you like that. Though in towns fueled by bible thoughts, a troublesome addiction addiction to masculinity, and an odd isolation from most of the rest of the state, creates a hellish idea. That they are standing alone on this thing.

Lumber mills, bibles, and parental fear in a mostly white town. It tends to bring about the worst in people. There will be those who are neutral. Every Aberdeen needs it's Kurt Cobain. But it isn't the strong side. It isn't the winning side. And chances are, someone is gonna get drunk, and someone else is going to die.

Of course I could be reading too much Chuck Palahniuk. And so my ideas right now could be branching from my ideal of a mimic of the title to the almost sickening depression that guy gives you. Showing that being gay isn't always the birth proud, fabulous with big parades, and yaoi perfection that appears. Sometimes you pick the wrong person. Sometimes you aren't accepted. Sometimes what you want never happens. Sometimes you have to deal, you get your ass kicked, you have to prove yourself. Sometimes, you die.

Though that is just me.
