Today, I had a small, win. And, I would like to share my victory with all of you. This morning, after my professor proclaimed, this quiz was harder than others have been, a males voice behind me said, plainly, faggot. There was some laughter. The professor asked for clarification and, after no clarification was offered, tried to move on with lecture. I asked if we could please pause. I told the professor, I think youre a really good professor and teacher, and you didnt deserve that. He said he didnt want to get upset by it, and he wanted to move on so, he could enjoy his life. I told him I didnt want to move on, because I was upset. I collected myself during class, and when class was over, I stood up, and said to the class, ... this man is our teacher and mentor. He deserves our respect and kindness... Because, BOOM. If we remain silent when things like this happen, we lose. I would like to add, being a faggot would merely imply that our professor was lucky enough to be loved by another man... and, there is nothing wrong with that. His wife might not approve. But, to my knowledge, that wasnt what the insult implied.
