SUMMARY: So basically this article is talking about a young man Zac Brokenrope. The article explains how he is feeling about the daily torment he faces for "acting gay". Zac has never felt accepted by any of his peers. His parents are embarresed by him and they wont let him start a gay-straight alliance at school. Basically Zac is alone because of his sexuallity. Studies have shown that Zac is not aone. Almost all gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender people feel the same way. In the study, scientists noticed that some LGBT people feel the need to change the way they act around other people so that they wont get bullied. Studies also show that by hanging out with meore people that are like you that you will feel more comfortable the way you are and you won't feel the need to conform to society. That is why it is important to have these LGBT groups availabe to the public.
