Today, walking down the street with my lover I was called a faggot in Italian by a tourist, he obviously didn’t expect me to understand. But I’m italian and I did. I reacted. I told him to fuck off, watch his mouth and I then flipped him. I’m not proud of my reaction, I feel like I dropped down to the same basic primate level as him. I’m even less proud because his children were there. But the trigger was so big.
