For my chosen blog post, it isn't exactly the newest post to be put on the internet. In fact, it's actually a year old. Nevertheless, it is still one of my favorites that I have seen. The blog post features the author's insight to the LGBT community and what her thoughts are about the matter. She brings up the unfortunate disapproval that sometimes comes up with the subject and that we should all embrace how each and everyone of us were born. The author of this post is Dianna Agron, or otherwise known to the many fans of the Glee series, Quinn Fabray.

Dianna talks about how proud she is to be part of the show that celebrates a topic that is sadly unapproved by many.  She speaks strongly about trying to send her message around the world about accepting others, about making a change.  Reading through the post, you can feel how deeply she tries to express her love and support to those who aren't so lucky to have that shown to them. She even talks about how she decided to take that support a bit further and go on stage during one of their concerts in Toronto wearing a "Likes girls" t-shirt instead of her regular "Lucy Caboosey" (if you watch Glee, you know what I'm talking about.)

I was not raised in a family that accepted prejudice or hatred. For that, I thank my Mom and Dad each and every day. Look, we are human, we make mistakes. I will gladly shout from the rooftops that I AM NOT PERFECT. Nor will I ever be. But I can happily say that to my knowledge, I do not ever intentionally cause people pain. I love my family, my friends, my co-workers…and they all consist of girls AND boys. I do tell them that I love them. Yesterday, during our second show,  Instead of wearing my usual shirt during “Born This Way” I decided to wear one that said “Likes Girls”. It should actually have read, “Loves Girls”, because I do. The women in my life give me things that the men in my life can’t. And vice-versa. No, I am not a lesbian, yet if I were, I hope that the people in my life could embrace it whole-heartedly. And let me tell you, I can easily spill (quite comfortably) what I admire, respect and think is beautiful about any of the women in my life. Piece of cake!

Despite the antagonistic and cruel character she portrays on TV, Dianna seems to be the complete opposite. She's just a girl with an old soul who doesn't want to truly grow up . Throughout her entire blog it is undeniable that every post is written with so much thought put into it and so passionately. Not only that, but to me she is incredibly well-spoken while blogging what are more of her opinions and what she loves. It is really quite refreshing to have a celebrity post things not so much as to promote a certain thing, but be more like "this is me, this is my life".
