It takes a lot to get me hot and bothered...those who know me will tell you I'm a happy go-lucky kinda guy...but this was brought to my attention and I figured it'd be better for me to blog about it and let it out then to let it steam up (or maybe not, but oh well...here it goes...)
I'm new to ActiveRain, so I guess this is my coming out party on here, but as a gay man who's been in a committed relationship for over 12 years, been an outstanding member of the community and an all-a-round bleeding heart to those in need, I was repulsed to read this story about a REALTOR is Dallas who discriminated against a gay man saying she would not expose her clients to the "gay" neighborhood because of its harmful lifestyle ... what kinda crazy are we living in?!

To this agent, all I have to say is that what is truly harmful is your hate and ignorance...shame on you! I don't discrimate in any way, shape or form in my business...not only because I represent myself and my company, but the profession as a whole. We have a bad enough stereotypical reputation as it is and to add haters to the list?!?! I just don't get it...
Okay, that was my rant...sorry if this isn't the correct forum...but some things need to be brought out in to the open that just can't ignored...
