Homosexuality

In todays society, statistics show the number of homosexuals are increasing by double. Many teens chose not to tolerate, affiliate, or associate with those of homosexuality. What i dont understand is if a friendship has lasted for so many months, why should it end because of a friends secret being revealed? These people that we dont accept eat with us, talk to us, and affiliate with us everyday. The reason why i believe "People are in the closet" is because of the high stereotypes, names, and categories we put on these people. If the heterosexuals wouldnt talk about and only accept these peolp daily people would probably not be stuck in confinement their whole lives. What can a person like you do for a person in shame of their sex, to make heir lives just as average as yours?
