I have applied to two jobs today, and they have led me to procrastinate a bit. Why? Because both of them are actively recruiting for 'non-heterosexuals'. I was thinking to myself, could I pretend to be queer (defined as: non heterosexual) to get into a job? I would almost do that, because it's damn hard to get into a job. This sounds like the premise to Judd Apatow movie. If I may be frank, what the hell does it matter what sexuality you are, unless you are working as a porn star or something, and even then; lots of people are 'gay for pay'.
I've read a lot of blogs about feminism and gender issues. Am I becoming a closet feminist? Perhaps I am. I am not reading enough Aristotle, it seems. I was also reading about on wikipedia about the life of Justin Fashanu (sic); that's tragic, I can't believe that he's the ONLY professional footballer to come out. That's crazy, it's also terribly sad. The world is still pretty intolerant, I guess that's why people do affirmative action. I wish I was scooped up on an affirmative basis, I mean, I'm a minority ethnic, I have a disability, and a couple of mental illnesses (anxiety and purging). Maybe I need to maim myself and then the applications will come flooding in.
In other news, I'm still bloody waiting for my basic disclosure to come in. I WANT TO WORK!! I hope the HR people successfully recieved my application.
