Dear UNC-Wilmington PRIDE:
I am writing to express my interest in joining you during your
appearances at UNC-Wilmington Resident Assistant (RA) training next
semester. At the beginning of every semester, members of your
UNC-Wilmington student group speak to all of our RAs. You describe
yourself as an organization dedicated to the eradication of bigotry and
the promotion of inclusion. But then you contradict yourself by saying
you seek to "Improve the quality of LGBTIQA lives and increase
understanding and acceptance of LGBTIQA individuals in the general
university community."
Unfortunately, you've excluded a very important group of students on our
campus. I would like to come join you to speak on their behalf. That
group is, of course, the straight student population that refuses to
join your political alliance in support of the gay "civil rights"
agenda.
If I understand correctly - and, forgive me, as I've never taken the
Queer Theory course offered by my department - LGBTIQA stands for the
following: Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Trans-gendered, Inter-sexed, Queer,
and Allies.
During the two and a half days of training concerning LGBTIQA issues I
am told you made the following major points: 1) Heterosexist privilege
is rampant in America; 2) Most people are guilty of heterosexism. You
also passed out sheets defining certain terms such as "homophobia" and
"inter-sexed." I'm glad you decided on one definition for those unable
to decide upon one gender identity - those who seek to change genders,
not to mention bathrooms, from one day to the next.
I am told that the president of your group spoke at RA training and that
others shared their "coming out" stories. I would like to speak to you
about my own coming out story, which was the day I decided I was opposed
to endless gay indoctrination. People stopped talking to me (read:
excluded me) after I came out. I'm sure that's happened to others on our
campus. Therefore, I would like to pass out "Straight Pride" stickers at
the end of my talk - that is, if you are in favor of intellectual
diversity, tolerance, and inclusion.
