The Perfect Response To Age Old Homophobia

Famous photographer, makeup artist, and LGBT activist Matt Bernstein has the perfect answer to morons who still weaponise the belief that homosexuality is a choice.

He shared nine powerful words with 288k Instagram followers and to date has received 53k likes.

“If being gay was a choice,” his eye makeup reads, “I’d be gayer.”

Bernstein, meanwhile, has photographed himself emblazoned with other words of wisdom. Some highlights:

• “Hate dressed in religion is just hate.”
• “Some families are chosen.”
• “What if we loved queer kids as much as we love gender reveals.”
• “Why does style only become trendy once straight, white, cis people catch on?”
• “Gay rights wouldn’t exist without trans women of color.”
