Did y'all know James Buchanan, the 15th president of the United States was gay but got engaged to Ann Coleman to cover it up because no one supported that in the 1800s? Imagine not being able to love who you love just because others find it wrong. Although he was able to adopt Harriet Lane and raise her with his significant other, William Watson.

Answer: I did not know. This is quite the information. I believe you should be able to love who you want and not be afraid to be hated by it. I'm glad that communities are getting more accepting but we still have a while to go until it will all be okay.
