You do not have to be young to be subject to Homophobic abuse. At 55 I suffer from very abusive neigbours, who often shout at me from the street. They make banging noises and play loud music at night to intimidate me into moving house. Younger people need a site like this to help them develope inner strenghth. Peter Duncan
All around the world young people are struggling everyday with their sexuality. As young people it can be hard to find messages of hope and affirmation in the world today. Too many young people take their own lives because they feel lost. They feel unloved. They feel worthless. They feel like the ugly Duckling. Within every ugly duckling there is something amazing, something that should be nurtured, something that deserves to be loved. A friend once said to me "if you have any ideas that could help change the minds of kids thinking as you did....please offer them to them. who knows how many swans weve lost." So this is it. This is the Ugly Ducklings Project. This is a place for anybody to speak. Leave your own story, make your own video. Add your own messages of hope and affirmation or leave a tribute to a lost swan.
