very interesting thread, and very interesting to read everyone´s experiences
My experience was more of a non experience. sure there are Swedish anti-gay/anti-bbm people but the whole thing has been pretty de-dramatized here. I have always make my obsessions clear to the world, actually I think I tend to flaunt them. I´m proud of them and I put up pictures of them at work etc.
I have had a few discussions though, whenever I meet someone who is anti-gay it seems it´s fysically impossible for me to shut up, and I always take the fight. But if there´s one thing I´ve learned is that it´s impossible to win that kind of argument. Those individuals must come to see the light for themselves, still it seems, I can never manage not to say something.
And then the church is not a force to be reckon with here, and myself nor my family are religious, so I don´t have those issues to deal with either.
