You want to get kids out of foster care and into good, loving homes? I’ve got a simple solution to your problem.

Did you know LGBT couples are more likely to adopt older, children of color and disable children than straight couples? LGBT couples tend to adopt ‘undesired’ children more (basically kids no one else wants.)

This is so important because I remember being in the system and being so scared that I would never be adopted or loved or whatever and seriously just fucking let them, take the fear out of finding a family

Exactly. I reblog this every time I see it. EVERY time.

Hey, I don't know why I'm asking you this, but I am kinda confused soo... I'm sorry if I'm bothering you... I have no idea what my sexuality is. I'm like a mix between gay and asexual? Can you even be that?? Like I don't wanna have sex, and I'm never attracted sexually to anyone. But at the same time I just really like girls, they are nice and cute and almost always hot... I know you probs can't answer, but at least I got it out now... Thank you very much if you read all this, you're wonderful

Hey Awwww no its completely okay, and u can ask anything u want. Well I can tell u that I was asexual and I never was attracted to anyone and u could say I was confused about my sexuality too, and I have only come to terms with my sexuality. I don't look at anyone and say I wanna do stuff with them, and when I met ellie I didn't want anything sexually just a relationship and then I began to realise that I was and still am attracted to her and its hard for me as I'm mixed race and Muslim and I couldn't tell anyone about my sexuality I thought it was wrong because of my upbringing but I realise now that its not wrong that I've fallen in love, there is no definition of sexuality its what feels right to ur self its what u know u want and like... I'm not sure if this helps but yeah u can be both its like saying u can't have something but u really want It all u have to do is understand what it is like and just because u don't want anything sexually doesn't mean u can't find or be attracted to someone else I was like u lol xxxx x
