Our project started out as a blog but has now developed into something completely different. The idea is the same but more refined.
We are first taking back one of the derogatory terms "homo" and making it apply to us all, "HOMOsapien" because we're all human and essentially all the same. The idea behind it is that everyone does things that are consider not to be normal; so why are homosexuals being put down just because they're doing something that does not fall under the heterosexual definition of normal.
So our project developed into a Pic-tition "Picture-Petition" where by taking a picture holding a sign that says "HOMOsapien" you are making a promise to make a conscious effort to no longer use derogatory terms to put down homosexuals (whether the terms are used intentionally or unintentionally).
We aren't asking anyone to change their beliefs, we are just asking people to respect each other because we're all humans.
