Can I just break a stereotype here? I'm a Christian. My best friend is gay. My favorite actor is gay. There's nothing wrong with being gay. So if you have a comment to leave that will hurt someone's feelings, please don't do it here. Thank you
leonard2209 I'm not christian, but I've been raised in the faith. Being discriminatory and judging people is a much worst sin. Judging is not your responsibility nor your right, it belongs to your god, and you know that taking god's place is a way bigger sin than almost anything else.
Can I break the news to you that you are NOT a Christian ? You are of this world and a lost person who makes excuses for sin and the consequences of sinful lusts . As a Christian you should consider the bible his word should be your authority and yet you reject his laws and warnings in the bible . You are false and bear bad fruit .. Not a Christian , you are only fooling yourself
I came out when I was 12 and I was bullied a lot. But when I saw that Neil Patrick Harris made this video, I watched it almost every day and it helped me get through it. He has always been my idol from when I was a little girl. And he's so right. It does get better.
Hearing this makes me feel so proud of being a lesbian. I love NPH as an actor and person. And the way David looks at him and he looks at David. God, how I wish there would one day be looking someone like that to me.
thing is it is not just lust dumbass it is called liking/loving someone I'm a lesbian too and I don't want a man because I find them not to attractive at all I like girls nothing wrong and if a man wants a nother man let it be
Every single soul out there who is somehow against "Homosexuality" is insecure himself, about his own sexuality.. That's just the way it is and there is no other way. If the person was not to be insecure about himself he probably wouldn't give a shit.. But being insecure can turn anyone into a hating homophobe.
The problem with committing suicide when a person is being bullied is that the person committing suicide has the wrong conception. They think that be committing suicide, it will all go away. Fact is, it does not. People will continue to talk about you even after you are gone. They will have even more to talk about because they will say you are a loser and took the easy way out. This talk will get back to your parents and loved ones and it will cut like a knife. It will bring shame to them. It is better to suffer through the bullying and rise above it. Show those who are bullying you that you are a better person than they are. Do not let they win by driving you to commit suicide. That is what they want. Once they have succeed with you, they will just move on to someone else. Do not give them the satisfaction of winning and do not allow it to go on.
I admire this man so much, great actor , great husband, great father, great message , Neil wish my brother who I lost to aids in 1990 could hear you, and see what a great life everyone can have and how far the LGBT community has come. So proud of Neil Patrick Harris for taking a stand and helping others to get along in this diverse world of ours.💙💚🧡❤️💜💙💚🧡❤️💜💙💚🧡❤️💜💙💚
To the people here that are trying to use your religion to say we are wrong you need to stop. Just because you believe in one religion doesn't mean that we do. Backing yourself with religion is like backing yourself with a piece of crap it wont work why because there is many religions and many pieces of crap. Try actually getting some facts before you try to back yourself. Also don't hate on something that you don't know nor understand it isn't right I respect everyone and I believe everyone is entitled to their own opinion but don't take it too far and don't bring religion into it. Like I said we may not believe in the same religion that you do so don't use your religion to say we are wrong.
I am not a Christian or religious at all, but I can definitely respect someone like that. I actually have a next door neighbor who's a devout Christian, but though I am not religious and I am bisexual, she's never judged me in any way. She has shown me that there are many paths to a heart filled with love. Mine does not involve Jesus, but hers, and yours, do, and that's just fine. If only all religious people were like you, this world would be such a great place.
This is amazing!!, i really love the words of Neil, thanks for give us this message of be brave to all of us, ive benn bullied in high school now i changed high school and is to much better but anybody knows im gay. I still workig for be a famous world supertar in music, and live in USA because i love it, im far away, im form Uruguay, Southamerica, but i will make my dream come true, and listen people like Niel talk to us, makes me feel proud of myself. Thank you Neil!!
***** nah , at least not the Dumbledore from the books. JKR pulled it out of her ass last minute to attract the gay community, so obvious that it was pathetic.
Man I looked up to you. I watched How I met Your Mother. And I looked up to you. You were legendary, the man who could pick up women at any time. I looked up to you, and you let me down man. You let me down. But it's just a show. And, though I am straight, I fully support you sir. By the way, my name is Neil too! XD
This is just wrong. How can somebody as handsome as Neil Patrick Harris be gay? I wouldn't bully gay people for their feelings. But that's not actually how they feel. They all just fell into a complicated way somehow which made them think they're diffirent. They made themselves think that they're not supposed to be straight inside their mind without even realizing it. Including Neil. There are no such thing as being gay. If you're gay, you're not, because you're kidding yourself. Just think about it and you'll see that you're not this person. God created man for woman, and woman for man. There can't be any other way. This is not natural. This is not how human kind is. You're just making yourself believe that there can be. Don't just say that "I'm proud of who I am" because that's not who you are at all. Please just think about it before you decide you're gay.
It's not something you decide. Sit down. Shut up. You wouldn't know, and to be honest, neither do I because I am bisexual. Sexuality is something that you know without fully knowing. I have always been attracted to boys. I also am attracted to girls too. It shouldn't matter to you or any other bigoted homophobes because it doesn't actually affect you. *sashays out of room*
regularshow960 By saying their feelings don't exist, you're alienating them as a part of humanity. So glad Pope Francis is around to clean the gutters of christianity.
regularshow960 I would HIGHLY recommend that you go to the APA site and research homosexuality. Here's a start "Since 1975, the American Psychological Association has called on psychologists to take the lead in removing the stigma of mental illness that has long been associated with lesbian, gay, and bisexual orientations. The discipline of psychology is concerned with the well-being of people and groups and therefore with threats to that well-being. The prejudice and discrimination that people who identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual regularly experience have been shown to have negative psychological effects." They also clarify that "most people experience little or no sense of choice about their sexual orientation." Your religious arguments are not based only ANY facts. Please educate yourself and keep your religious bias out of your statement, it really doesn't make you look good. One more FACT "All teenagers face certain developmental challenges, such as developing social skills, thinking about career choices and fitting into a peer group. Like most heterosexual youths, most lesbian, gay and bisexual youths are healthy individuals who have significant attachments to and make contributions to their families, peers, schools and religious institutions. However, lesbian, gay and bisexual youth must also cope with the prejudice, discrimination and violence in society and, in some cases, in their own families, schools and communities. Such marginalization negatively affects the health, mental health and education of those lesbian, gay and bisexual young people who experience it. For example, in one study, these students were more likely than heterosexual students to report missing school due to fear, being threatened by other students, and having their property damaged at school.1 The promotion in schools of efforts to change sexual orientation by therapy or through religious ministries seems likely to exacerbate the risk of harassment, harm and fear for these youth." source APA
That was back when there was a low population in the earth. It was all for procreation. Now they r some 6 BILLION people or more. Procreation isn't a problem anymore.
JLM TV that's great if that's the case for you and if you believe that. Just remember: You don't have to support gay marrige, just respect gay people and leave them alone. If they burn in hellfire that's not your problem.
Anybody out there that feels that they can't go on for any reason at all, including feeling outcast, or is being ridiculed for not being what others want or expect you to be, the best thing you can do is to stand tall and ignore it. It does get easier. Carry on with your life, and most importantly do what makes you happy ALWAYS. There are more people out there who understand what you are going through than you think, and we're all supporters of you =)
I don't know where you're getting your definition of shaman from, but that is most certainly NOT the definition of a shaman, and not a definition that I've ever seen before. What form(s) of yoga do you practice, out of curiosity? I did kundalini yoga several times a week (usually three-to-four) for four or five years and found it quite beneficial; however, it still didn't even come close in terms of benefit to some of my chemically induced experiences. I plan to resume meditating again soon.
This was posted 10 years ago and I know we will get to a golden age for us again. Remember my friends it does get better! Even if it only gets better in your social circle of friends it gets better.
Neil is so cute, I love him because of those things. I'm not homosexual but I respect them (like him) so much! He gives so many people hope! Thanks for beig alive Neil
(continuing on from before) So if you feel as if everyone in the world can't stand the sight of you just because of who you love, you're wrong. I'm there, and I'm still caring for you so very much. I could never hate you, no matter what. That, my friend, is a promise. If you're ever feeling down, just remember that I'm here for you, always and forever. /hugs/ NPH, you are amazing! Thank you so much for everything!!!
Do you speak Dutch? I'd like to learn and I'm not sure why my father and his family didn't endeavour to teach me when I was younger. (Right now I'm focusing on Mandarin, which is a bitch, and I'm going to start Spanish since I'm moving to Chile in seven months, but eventually...) Thanks - I haven't been playing much DDR lately as I've replaced it with jogging, but I intend to get back into it, It's a pleasure to chat with you. It's not often I meet someone so insightful and interesting online.
It's so brave of 'phobes to post hate to an "it gets better video" and defend "bullying". I can almost feel the love. Really though it gets better when you grow up. The 'phobes stay stupid and live their lives as internet trolls while we grow up to be confident in who we are so we don't have to waste time on the hate. Unless we choose to, and thankfully though you may not be able to change who you are, you do get to choose how you respond.
Hi! I'm from Spain and I don't understand a lot of what are talking... Somebody can say more or less whats saying? I know that is about the gays and this, but I don't know more... Thanks!
I agree with what he says about things getting better when you grow up. I'm not gay, but quite eccentric. That's why I got reguarly bullied at school when I was younger. Now I'm one of the more popular individuals where I live, because I'm different. It's important not to bow down before the bullies and let them have their way.
as a christian I thank you for this. It hurts to watch people say they believe in God and then attack his children. It is Gods place to judge not ours. We don't know what God is thinking. We'll find out one day, and i'm in no hurry to get there.
Not to mention, your "peak" is completely of your own construction, regardless of how you frame it with yoga or any other form of mysticism, or even how you frame those mysticisms (calling them by any other name, citing them as sources of ultimate truth). Those are all ultimately tools of your mind to serve your own biases. No amount of yoga will prevent your mind from being self-serving. It can help you access consciousness that is precursory to the self-serving mind, but the mind persists.
I don't think I've ever seen Neil Patrick Harris being serious before. Such a different side and a wonderful message.. Feels like something I can use if I ever find myself at a point where I'm trying to convince an LGBT youth that things do in fact get better.
Thank you, Dan! My Father had the same views as SMP, and died with an understanding rather, acceptance of loving his gay sons and daughter is what he needed to move on. You can preach-preach-preach all you want, but it's what happens in the end that matters. I believe nothing is PLAIN AND SIMPLE. It's who we are that matters. Can't we stop all of this nonsense?
The space between the subjective observer and the mind is what I meant by "access conscious that is precursory to the self-serving mind." That space seems to be narrowing when you tell other people to "get fucked" or define their emotional experiences for them ("butt hurt"), justify it by claiming you're trying to "pull back people's skin," and judging anything that differs from your opinion as "ear-tickling" or "bullshit." Insulting, trivializing, and antagonizing were never encouraged in Zen.
I think you meant impulses, not pulses. Also, does it hurt being that ignorant? Having been reared by tolerant, loving parents it is really hard for me to know, but I have always been curious.
Several decades ago the definiton of marriage (at least in some peoples opinion which is all a definition is) was an ordained relationship between people of the same race I am glad that the 'definition' of marriage has been challenged repeatedly And there is no dispute over whether Chic-Fil-A can have a stance and an opinion (everyone has that right) but that doesnt mean it cant be critiscised If you were a gay person i think you'd find it hard not to critiscise them when they are opposed to you
Good call on the difference between the construction of gender codes versus how it's actually expressed, in its many many different ways. "den Breeijen" is Dutch. Nice dance pads.
this is a very inspiring message. life does get better after Highschool, no need to try to fit in or be accepted by the "cool people" in univeristy/college nobody cares about that kind of stuff. all the "cool" people from highschool arnt really that cool after highschool and everyone just moves on with life. that's what i've learned :)
My friend is homophobic and biphobic.I am bisexual , but she doesn't know.So many people think I am straight because I look straight.I don't like stereotypes.Anyway thanks for saying this.
Petra Christin strenght for you. If someone doesn't accept you for being yourself, they are not real friends. Maybe she changes her mind when she finds out? Maybe the friendship is too strong to be broken. PLEASE TELL ME YOUR SITUATION NOW
Why would it be wrong in any way at all? Seriously, I'm gay, but i'm happy knowing that God loves everyone for who they are. It's not like it is a choice you made, no matter how much some people say. Just let yourself be yourself, for love is love, no matter who it is with. Also, America and the UK and loads of other countries are promoting gay marriage, and they as nations are religious, so if you ever doubt yourself, just know that you have most of the world's religious believers behind you! x
Okay to some of you: What the hell?! Being gay is not discusting our wrong, it's a natural and common thing. You are who you are and you don't have to change our adapt to what other people think you should be!
I think the title of this video should be changed, because clearly Neil Patrick Harris isn't just aiming his message out to gay youth, rather he's telling the youth as a whole to be proud of who they are, and not to feel that just because they're not with the "popular" kids in school doesn't mean they suck at life. Quite the opposite actually, and that being yourself as an individual is the way to be awesome.
I am a straight guy and I totally support this message. Why do these trolls commenting here feel the need to post anti-gay comments? I suspect lack of intelligence. It's not our business who sleeps with who, and nobody should die as a of their legal preference.
(2) Completely agree: if I was single and browsing, some dude describing himself as "straight acting" would be a massive turn off for me, intellectually and in terms of what it implies about his views on men and the gay-on-gay homophobia implication. Ha... while I've only dated cis guys, I'd be absolutely agreeable to dating a transguy. They can be freakishly hot, often in looks, confidence, and personality. Is your last name Dutch, out of curiosity? (Non Dutch speaking Dutch boy here.)
This video made me sad. Made me think of how much i hate some people. Bullying made me quit highschool, i have been building up courage for the last 2 years to go back and get the diploma. This year i'm going to do it. I don't even know why being called gay hurts so much, i'm not gay, yet it still affects me so, that's what i find weird.
I am a young Christian guy. Yes I My religion says that homosexuality is a sin. I'm not saying I hate them. I love them like I love everyone. I love Neil as a person. He's a great actor and he's strong in his belief. I value those strong gays. It's a great trait to have. I'm against homosexuals..... But I'm also against bullying.
I think being gay is no curse or "sickness,," I support the gay and if people hate gays well thats just wrong so why did you click on the video,??? If your going to say something bad dont say it at all
It would be nice if more Christians thought like you. I constantly hear from Christians that gay people CANNOT be Christian because they are living in unrepentant sin. However, if you're divorced and remarried and living in unrepentant adulterous sin (Matt 5:32, Matt 19:9), no problem at all! Welcome to our church!
You know,I really hate it when people judge by sexuality.Gays,lesbians,bisexuals,these all deserve respect.They are born with that feeling,not being something they are nor.People PROTESTED saying they were being something they're not,and,not dragging cosplayers into this,but saying so about them.Gays don't deserve to be mistreated.They're people like us.Think about that.Don't judge by the outside,but how they act.

Can I just break a stereotype here? I'm a Christian. My best friend is gay. My favorite actor is gay. There's nothing wrong with being gay. So if you have a comment to leave that will hurt someone's feelings, please don't do it here. Thank you
If only people were like you... Have a nice day :)
we need awesome people like you
thank you

I'm not even gay but needed to hear this. It can be related to many things and not just being gay. Thank you, Neil!
@@Sistermedusa1986 being STUPID is wrong too but look at you
Same
I came out when I was 12 and I was bullied a lot. But when I saw that Neil Patrick Harris made this video, I watched it almost every day and it helped me get through it. He has always been my idol from when I was a little girl. And he's so right. It does get better.
Hearing this makes me feel so proud of being a lesbian. I love NPH as an actor and person. And the way David looks at him and he looks at David. God, how I wish there would one day be looking someone like that to me.
e2sguy Are you saying that true love is so delicate that it is broken by gender? Also, you're*
thing is it is not just lust dumbass it is called liking/loving someone I'm a lesbian too and I don't want a man because I find them not to attractive at all I like girls nothing wrong and if a man wants a nother man let it be
Not even gay and this helped a little bit.
Every single soul out there who is somehow against "Homosexuality" is insecure himself, about his own sexuality.. That's just the way it is and there is no other way. If the person was not to be insecure about himself he probably wouldn't give a shit.. But being insecure can turn anyone into a hating homophobe.

true!
RuneFun12 Can't agree with you more!
hi Neil Patrick Harris how did you write the bro cod in the playbook
And who cares?
3 words: He Is AMAZING
Hedda Grönwall legen...wait for it.... DARY!
No LEGENDARY
I watched this 11 years ago when I came out at 16. This video gave me hope and inspired me when my world turned upside down. Thank you for posting
This is disgusting. There is so many people making horrible remarks about gay people I taught us humans were evolved than this
I read the first 3 words and got mad but then I read the rest xD
LegitBolTz Hahahahaha xD
TheKingsterHD I know. He diagnose you with gay.
"Stand tall and be proud of who you are."
Amen.
I'm bi (like girls more) when I was 14 I tried to tell my mom... She said no you're not it's against God and the next day she made me go to church
Rebecca Lebo I feel so terrible for you, I hope your mom will accept you. One day she'll see, I promise.
kyra♥ thank you
U can be whatever u want😬,if she doesn't accept it then don't tell her😊
Thanks 😀
+Rebecca Loves Dominik from suicide note wow im sorry!
Well said NPH.
Shame that homophobic twits are allowed to leave disgusting and disturbing comments despite your message of compassion and caring.
Being different means you are special. I realized this in 4th grade. I hope you will too.
Very Proud to know there are wonderful people in this world. Mr Harris, Thank you for being just the way you are! Your beautiful and perfect!
The problem with committing suicide when a person is being bullied is that the person committing suicide has the wrong conception. They think that be committing suicide, it will all go away. Fact is, it does not. People will continue to talk about you even after you are gone. They will have even more to talk about because they will say you are a loser and took the easy way out.

Once they have succeed with you, they will just move on to someone else. Do not give them the satisfaction of winning and do not allow it to go on.
Still can't believe how ignorant people are, its the 21st century people! Get over the homophobia already! Being gay doesn't make anyone a sinner!
Been going on an NPH RUclips binge. Just an incredibly down-to-earth guy who explodes with talent in front of a camera. Gotta love him.
What's more depressing than being a straight man who doesn't get hit on by woman?
it's being a straight man that doesn't get hit on by gay men either.
it feels as if I want and can imagine as if my dad actually told this to me and understood
Neil your awesome! My daughter is your biggest fan.
Neil Patrick Harris is someone people should look up to.
How can people dislike this? :O
I admire this man so much, great actor , great husband, great father, great message , Neil wish my brother who I lost to aids in 1990 could hear you, and see what a great life everyone can have and how far the LGBT community has come. So proud of Neil Patrick Harris for taking a stand and helping others to get along in this diverse world of ours.💙💚🧡❤️💜💙💚🧡❤️💜💙💚🧡❤️💜💙💚

People choose to do what they want.
Biggest shocks on TV: Finding out that Barney, the master of sex, the writer of the playbook, the perfect month guy is actually gay.
Doesn't matter he is still awesome. Be a Gay doesn't change nothing ;-)
Tupistols Ya I know he still is. But it's quite ironic. The biggest lady's guy is gay. That's like saying Dumbledore is a muggle.
***** nah , at least not the Dumbledore from the books. JKR pulled it out of her ass last minute to attract the gay community, so obvious that it was pathetic.
I'm not gay and I love this man
Man I looked up to you. I watched How I met Your Mother. And I looked up to you. You were legendary, the man who could pick up women at any time. I looked up to you, and you let me down man. You let me down. But it's just a show. And, though I am straight, I fully support you sir. By the way, my name is Neil too! XD
No.
Do you also decide what music you like, Or do you decide when you hear it?

people who r lost in this world use God as the answer to anything. U and the Bible can go fuck ur selves
God created man for woman, and woman for man.
And who are you to get into people's bed? Get a life so you can stop messing in other's life. Thanks.

This was posted 10 years ago and I know we will get to a golden age for us again. Remember my friends it does get better! Even if it only gets better in your social circle of friends it gets better.
Nice message an all i understand what he's saying
but whats going through my mind is Whats up with the random elevator music?
Neil is so cute, I love him because of those things. I'm not homosexual but I respect them (like him) so much! He gives so many people hope! Thanks for beig alive Neil
(continuing on from before) So if you feel as if everyone in the world can't stand the sight of you just because of who you love, you're wrong. I'm there, and I'm still caring for you so very much. I could never hate you, no matter what. That, my friend, is a promise. If you're ever feeling down, just remember that I'm here for you, always and forever. /hugs/
NPH, you are amazing! Thank you so much for everything!!!
Do you speak Dutch? I'd like to learn and I'm not sure why my father and his family didn't endeavour to teach me when I was younger. (Right now I'm focusing on Mandarin, which is a bitch, and I'm going to start Spanish since I'm moving to Chile in seven months, but eventually...)
Thanks - I haven't been playing much DDR lately as I've replaced it with jogging, but I intend to get back into it,
It's a pleasure to chat with you. It's not often I meet someone so insightful and interesting online.
Be proud of standing up and not letting others make us feel alone. We are proud of finding the courage to accept ourselves the way that we are!
Please provide information on where I can find this study. Just starting with "a recent study shows" means nothing.
I know right! I don't get it!
When he said awesone I saw Barney Stinson again
It's so brave of 'phobes to post hate to an "it gets better video" and defend "bullying". I can almost feel the love. Really though it gets better when you grow up. The 'phobes stay stupid and live their lives as internet trolls while we grow up to be confident in who we are so we don't have to waste time on the hate. Unless we choose to, and thankfully though you may not be able to change who you are, you do get to choose how you respond.
I'm so sad because when I watch HIMYM, I really really love Barney and Neil of course but I can't keep my dream on :(
Hi! I'm from Spain and I don't understand a lot of what are talking... Somebody can say more or less whats saying? I know that is about the gays and this, but I don't know more... Thanks!
I agree with what he says about things getting better when you grow up. I'm not gay, but quite eccentric. That's why I got reguarly bullied at school when I was younger. Now I'm one of the more popular individuals where I live, because I'm different.
It's important not to bow down before the bullies and let them have their way.
as a christian I thank you for this. It hurts to watch people say they believe in God and then attack his children. It is Gods place to judge not ours. We don't know what God is thinking. We'll find out one day, and i'm in no hurry to get there.
ThNX Patrick . I apreciate what you suggest to our generation .
Not to mention, your "peak" is completely of your own construction, regardless of how you frame it with yoga or any other form of mysticism, or even how you frame those mysticisms (calling them by any other name, citing them as sources of ultimate truth). Those are all ultimately tools of your mind to serve your own biases. No amount of yoga will prevent your mind from being self-serving. It can help you access consciousness that is precursory to the self-serving mind, but the mind persists.
I don't think I've ever seen Neil Patrick Harris being serious before. Such a different side and a wonderful message.. Feels like something I can use if I ever find myself at a point where I'm trying to convince an LGBT youth that things do in fact get better.
Thank you, Dan! My Father had the same views as SMP, and died with an understanding rather, acceptance of loving his gay sons and daughter is what he needed to move on. You can preach-preach-preach all you want, but it's what happens in the end that matters. I believe nothing is PLAIN AND SIMPLE. It's who we are that matters. Can't we stop all of this nonsense?
Can someone please translate it into german, my english isnt as well to understand everything he is saying
I'm not gay I'm bisexual,💗💙💜 but I get the msg here!!!🦄🌈
The space between the subjective observer and the mind is what I meant by "access conscious that is precursory to the self-serving mind." That space seems to be narrowing when you tell other people to "get fucked" or define their emotional experiences for them ("butt hurt"), justify it by claiming you're trying to "pull back people's skin," and judging anything that differs from your opinion as "ear-tickling" or "bullshit." Insulting, trivializing, and antagonizing were never encouraged in Zen.
really love Neil like he really stretches the point that ppl opinions r not worth hurting ur self bout and be positive.
I am quite interested in your point of view cliff. Tell me, why do you think gay people is messing up society?
I think you meant impulses, not pulses. Also, does it hurt being that ignorant? Having been reared by tolerant, loving parents it is really hard for me to know, but I have always been curious.
barney isn't
Neil is
when he says awesome branie just pops into my head lol
Accept everyone!!! We're all people, we shouldn't judge eachother.
Not granted, winning! Claiming! EVERYONE deserves equal rights and respect
Several decades ago the definiton of marriage (at least in some peoples opinion which is all a definition is) was an ordained relationship between people of the same race I am glad that the 'definition' of marriage has been challenged repeatedly And there is no dispute over whether Chic-Fil-A can have a stance and an opinion (everyone has that right) but that doesnt mean it cant be critiscised If you were a gay person i think you'd find it hard not to critiscise them when they are opposed to you
Why you are not wearing a suit?
A bro keep doin what your doin much love from the bay area
Just stop caring about what anyone thinks and start being your awesome self!
do Shambhavi Mahamudra for 2 months and tell me that.
Good call on the difference between the construction of gender codes versus how it's actually expressed, in its many many different ways. "den Breeijen" is Dutch. Nice dance pads.
Does anybody else smiled when he said "awesome"? :)
this is a very inspiring message. life does get better after Highschool, no need to try to fit in or be accepted by the "cool people" in univeristy/college nobody cares about that kind of stuff. all the "cool" people from highschool arnt really that cool after highschool and everyone just moves on with life. that's what i've learned :)
My friend is homophobic and biphobic.I am bisexual , but she doesn't know.So many people think I am straight because I look straight.I don't like stereotypes.Anyway thanks for saying this.
Petra Christin strenght for you. If someone doesn't accept you for being yourself, they are not real friends. Maybe she changes her mind when she finds out? Maybe the friendship is too strong to be broken. PLEASE TELL ME YOUR SITUATION NOW
I will always love him though who is he, I think he's really happy with the things that he's doing :D
@skrillz420music He's already married.
NPH... crushed on this guy for years before he came out. What a cool and talented guy!
After saying "and thats awsome" you can just see that inner Barnibus Stinson in Neil :p
Why would it be wrong in any way at all? Seriously, I'm gay, but i'm happy knowing that God loves everyone for who they are. It's not like it is a choice you made, no matter how much some people say. Just let yourself be yourself, for love is love, no matter who it is with.
Also, America and the UK and loads of other countries are promoting gay marriage, and they as nations are religious, so if you ever doubt yourself, just know that you have most of the world's religious believers behind you! x
Okay to some of you:
What the hell?! Being gay is not discusting our wrong, it's a natural and common thing.
You are who you are and you don't have to change our adapt to what other people think you should be!
Amen to that! We are all God's children and he still loves us!!!
pbscraze what Bible do you read...? What God are you reffering to?
Climbers Of Ice ur actually dumb... 1st of all it DOESNT MATTER
2nd of all that comment is *4 YEARS OLD*
I think the title of this video should be changed, because clearly Neil Patrick Harris isn't just aiming his message out to gay youth, rather he's telling the youth as a whole to be proud of who they are, and not to feel that just because they're not with the "popular" kids in school doesn't mean they suck at life. Quite the opposite actually, and that being yourself as an individual is the way to be awesome.
I am a straight guy and I totally support this message. Why do these trolls commenting here feel the need to post anti-gay comments? I suspect lack of intelligence. It's not our business who sleeps with who, and nobody should die as a of their legal preference.
why even bring that up?
(2) Completely agree: if I was single and browsing, some dude describing himself as "straight acting" would be a massive turn off for me, intellectually and in terms of what it implies about his views on men and the gay-on-gay homophobia implication.
Ha... while I've only dated cis guys, I'd be absolutely agreeable to dating a transguy. They can be freakishly hot, often in looks, confidence, and personality.
Is your last name Dutch, out of curiosity? (Non Dutch speaking Dutch boy here.)
This video made me sad. Made me think of how much i hate some people.
Bullying made me quit highschool, i have been building up courage for the last 2 years to go back and get the diploma. This year i'm going to do it. I don't even know why being called gay hurts so much, i'm not gay, yet it still affects me so, that's what i find weird.
I'm not joking when I said that all sorts of different people aren't meant to get along. Because we aren't
this is a great person and a very wonderful human, don't care who think he is not, because he really is and that's all that matters
@MattFrame From the words of Robin Williams, "You're good!"
Confusions say "he who drops watch in toilet, bound to have shitty time".
I am a young Christian guy. Yes I My religion says that homosexuality is a sin. I'm not saying I hate them. I love them like I love everyone. I love Neil as a person. He's a great actor and he's strong in his belief. I value those strong gays. It's a great trait to have. I'm against homosexuals..... But I'm also against bullying.
"For the Love of Pete..." NPH you're the MAN!
I think being gay is no curse or "sickness,," I support the gay and if people hate gays well thats just wrong so why did you click on the video,??? If your going to say something bad dont say it at all
Thank you so much.
There are 316 Westboro Baptist church members.
It would be nice if more Christians thought like you.
I constantly hear from Christians that gay people CANNOT be Christian because they are living in unrepentant sin. However, if you're divorced and remarried and living in unrepentant adulterous sin (Matt 5:32, Matt 19:9), no problem at all! Welcome to our church!
You know,I really hate it when people judge by sexuality.Gays,lesbians,bisexuals,these all deserve respect.They are born with that feeling,not being something they are nor.People PROTESTED saying they were being something they're not,and,not dragging cosplayers into this,but saying so about them.Gays don't deserve to be mistreated.They're people like us.Think about that.Don't judge by the outside,but how they act.
