    The problem is that I'm _not_ better than them - the reason that I
    get so angry isn't because they're doing this to me, or even that
    they're doing it to others, but the reasons that they're doing it -
    like I said, as far as they're concerned, existence is invalidated
    because of something you're born with, like your race or gender.

    But, unfortunately, everyone's right - there's nothing I can do to
    change them. I just wish that I could render them ineffective as far
    as affecting others, but laws prevent that; if I were to talk
    peacefully with the gay man, he would have me effectively ostracised
    because I'm homophobic, or something to that effect. To use my native
    colloquialism, it pisses me off to see that the law condones their
    discrimination of me for being a heterosexual male while protecting
    them from me because they're homosexual or female. Or both, in some
    cases. I want to give them justice, or empathy for what they're
    doing, but that's beyond me, at least for the moment...

    But like I said - you're all right. The only thing I can do right now
    is realize that they're the ones being stupid and find some way to
    defend myself if they target me, and then spread that bit of
    knowledge among others. Thanks for your help - I'll probably be
    posting more once I get this resolved.

    Thanks again,

    - Basim
