==It Gets Better==
 
After a spike in news reports on [[Homosexuality and mental illness|homosexual youth suicides]], Dan Savage started the [[It Gets Better project]].  The point of the project is to make videos assuring homosexual youths that their lives will "improve" after high school and college (despite the opposite being true due to the very nature of the homosexual lifestyle they choose to follow), and that bullying experienced for being homosexual will subside or be overcome by positive experiences.
