I was skimming through my sociology textbook and came across this hilarious questionnaire! There's 18 questions, so I just chose the ones I like the most.
1. What do you think caused your heterosexuality?
2. When and how did you decide you were a heterosexual?
3. Is it possible that your heterosexuality is just a phase you may grow out of?
4. Do your parents know that your are straight? Do your friends and/or roommate(s) know? How did they react?
5. Why do heterosexuals feel compelled to seduce others into their lifestyle?
6. A disproportionate majority of child molesters are heterosexual. Do you consider it safe to expose children to heterosexual teachers?
7. There seem to be very few happy heterosexuals. Techniques have been developed that might enable you to change if you really want to. Have you considered trying aversion therapy?
I've been meaning to write anything in my blog for quite some time. The reason why I haven't is because of my social anxiety. I've held onto a negative belief that I have nothing to say or even if I find something to say, it isn't worth writing about.
To whoever actually reads this, I guess I'll explain what social anxiety is. It is basically a fear of being in any kind of social situation where you could be judged negatively by other people. This fear brings on feelings of inadequacy, self-consciousness, and depression.
Hereisa short listof the things I struggle with-
talking on the phone, giving presentations, professorspicking me to answer questions in college,eating in public, meeting people for the first time,mingling, andwalkingaround stores (I feel like everyone is staring at me and judging me, even though I know it's not true).
The biggest thing that I'm trying to overcome is my fear of driving. After three years of renewing my permit, I finally got my license, but I still don't really like driving, yet.
I am getting help in overcoming this dreadful disorder, but it does take a lot of work and motivation. I'm never going to give up, though.
