(GRAPHIC WARNING) All You Need Is Love. MOVIE



All You Need Is Love, The Movie takes place in an alternate universe where being Gay is the "Norm" and being Straight is treated the being Gay is in the world today. GRAPHIC WARNING: If you are highly sensitive and/or easily disturbed this clip may not be for you.

That being said I think every straight person should see this clip. I am straight myself, I never experienced anything like this in my life, I never knew how bad it actually felt to be bullied for you're sexuality. Until you watch something like this clip, I don't think you'll be able to put yourself in the shoes of someone in the LGBT(Q) community. Thanks, liberalnarb.

VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED.

NOTE: I have been through the DU terms of service. I am not posting this for "Shock Value".

It was one of those clips where I thought I might watch a few minutes - only to get hooked and watch the whole thing. The girl that played Ashley is an uncommonly good actress.

Thanks for posting this.

Its scary what people go through. What I didn't know when I posted this is that this video is just the teaser for a full length movie. Don't know if I can stomach watching the whole thing. They have a website.

Transgender teens have they highest suicide rate of all groups. Something like this is very effective.

My heart breaks for anyone who suffers discrimination. This short film should be mandatory viewing for bigots who cannot put themselves in others' shoes.
