This is easy! Better to die in a plane crash than to be gay in
Indiana! Personal experience indicates that the only people here who
accept gays for who/what they are *don't* come from the Hoosier State,
but are temporary visitors from other states/countries/planets.
This sounds real negative, I know. I'm being kind to the
Hoosiers, though. No gay student groups on this campus. The last time
(approximately four years ago) there was one of those "blue jeans" days
one woman was beaten (raped?) by three burly bozos who figured that
"all she needed was a good fuck!"
Now you know why I'm taking 20 credits this semester; this way
I can graduate early and head back to safer territory!
