Davey Wavey :)

For those of you who don't know, this is Davey Wavey. Davey is an internet celebrity of sorts, who gained a following through youtube. He now has a blog where he posts written articles as well as videos of himself. Davey writes and speaks about his life, his views on certain issues and pretty much anything else he feels like. A large amount of the criticism of Davey comes from the gay community, where people criticize him for basically being too gay. This may come as a surprise to some people who don't understand the deep hypocrisy of the gays, but it is an unfortunate truth about the community. There is a lot of internalized homophobia that LGBT folks carry around, and a lot of the time it gets directed at other LGBT people. For example, people that haven't fully come to terms with themselves, and who aren't comfortable with their masculinity, or lack there of, judge Davey because he has come to terms with himself, and he does love himself.

Although I am a very different person from the person that Davey comes across as, I love the fact that he is himself in his videos. I love that he can be shirtless, and be happy and gay and talk about anything he feels like. Whereas I do not have his confidence nor his positive outlook on life, I can still take a lot away from what he has to say. I envy Davey because in some ways I do believe he is more at peace with himself than I am.

I have been reading and watching his blog for the past few days(I even subscribe now!), and I felt I had to write something about him, because I will continue to read his blog and listen to what he has to say. It will not stop bothering me that people wil judge him for being happy, that people will take time from their day to tell him he will burn in hell, and comment on articles about how annoying he is, when in most cases these people just can't take the fact that he is happy. Some of them may just disagree with his message, however it is really pathetic that some people can't just move on- it really says a lot. I choose to accept this person I don't even know, probably never will, and I urge you - my faithful readers - to accept him as well. Not to love everything he says, or necessarily even agree with it. But accept him because he is just doing his thing, like he has a right to, and he spreads a positive message. If you don't like it, you don't have to subscribe to it. Literally. So bugger off, and do something else with your time.

That seems like enough for today, and it is getting a bit late, so I am going to sign off for now. Sweet dreams :)
