Why do people give a damn about what colour skin a person has or what gender they are. Sadly idiots do
Football fans ( not all , but a lot ) have been stuck in the past times for years. In an ideal world no one would back an eye lid but the sad reality is , people get mocked , taunted and attacked for being who they are. A women can't go to a game without being wolf whistled or groped by a creepo, anyone who isn't white has had some sort of racial abuse thrown at them. A gay man/women would have been called a homophobic slur for no reason whatsoever.
This is a big deal because it's incourages more people to be who they are and not to feel like they cant be themselves because of some bigots. I can't imagine how that can affect someone mental state where they are ashamed to be themselves. Its not healthy and its time to get with the modern world.
Homophobia is still rife in the UK especially football.
