.:.:Spirit Day:.:. (2012)

NOTE: I understand there's people who may disagree with this, but I'd like to ask for some respect. You can voice out your opinion whichever it is, but there's always a nicer way to say things. Please don't be violent or disrespectful and try not to offend others - this deviation is, after all, a call for tolerance. Don't feed the trolls who only try to encourage pointless fights and answer politely and respectfully if you don't agree with someone. Thank you.

EDIT: OMFG! I went to sleep after uploading this and now I wake up to +1k 's and 47 new comments! Thanks SO much for all the feedback, you've definitely made my day! It means a lot to me, really! You guys are AWESOME!

EDIT 2, PLEASE READ: I've noticed that there's been confusion with the meaning of the message I wanted to transmit. I DO NOT support pedophilia or zoophilia. This message only regards to homosexual, bisexual and transgender people. I only support love with sexual implications between people, no matter origin, gender, beliefs, etc., as long as they are mature enough to make decisions freely and on their own judgement.

"Spirit Day is an international event to raise awareness of bullying and help prevent it in all forms. The day was started in 2010 as a response to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender youth who took their lives due to bullying. To get involved, paint your avatar purple, show support for your fellow deviants, spread the word, and submit your artwork to the gallery below to honor Spirit Day!"

This is my contribution to Spirit Day. Just yesterday I didn't even know of its existence because it hasn't been spread to my country (yet, at least), but I saw the ad today in DA and couldn't help but share my view of this. I don't usually do these kind of things, but it just came out of my very soul.

I took the quote and message from a T-shirt I found a while ago, and I thought it fit just perfectly. Here's the original reference: [link]

Yeah, I know that I didn't include bisexual and transgender people, but I'm so badass that I didn't notice it till the definitive sketch was made, and I was too lazy to add it. I also thought that it would look too over-elaborated and wouldn't have the same impact, so I decided to leave it this way. Don't feel excluded if you are either bisexual or transgender!
