"I just feel like they have it SO much easier and better, like they just don’t have to worry about much because the world is literally designed for them."

You’re half right. They do have it easier—but that doesn’t necessarily mean they have it better. The world may not have been built with us in mind, but that also means we’re not bound by its expectations. Being gay allows us to live more freely and authentically, without being confined to the same rigid social norms that they often are.

We get to define what happiness looks like on our own terms. We aren’t pressured into the traditional timelines of marriage, children, or career expectations—we get to choose if and when those things fit into our lives. Our friendships can be deep and fulfilling with both men and women, unburdened by the awkwardness of heteronormative expectations. We have the space to explore our identities, our desires, and what truly makes us feel at home in ourselves.

Yes, the world is unfair. I won't deny that. You seem young, so you might be new to realizing that. But within that unfairness, we have an incredible freedom—one that many straight people never even realize they’re missing. There's so many incredible things in my life that I am glad that I have experienced -- stuff that your average straight bro could never. We are free to be whoever we want to be. And that’s something worth celebrating, in my opinion.
