Do you think that major media coverage of this type of anti-gay rhetoric helps or hurts the cause of gay rights?

I would say it helps. It shows people that ignorance is no excuse and gets them thinking about the issue.

And that leads me to wonder. Was the "granny" real or simply another activist who found a new way to push his cause by sending a fake letter to Dear Abby.

I say give it a try...what do you have to lose? Besides some dick skin, I mean.

Ever since I was a little girl, I believed that if you were able to find love in this crazy and corrupt world that we live in, you were the most fortunate person in the world. What gender that person is or "supposedly" should be never even came into question to me. To have love, and be loved, is the most special feeling and act in the world. Man or woman, isn't even a factor to me.

When there is so much wrong, and so much heartbreak..how can people focus on who we choose to love as a problem? When it's so obviously a gift?

I don't think I'll ever understand people & why they are so hurtful, cruel and judgemental. :( :(

I wish more people could have your wisdom. :snap:

I thought that was funny.
:D

In today's newspaper, there was a letter from an elderly woman to this doc who runs a syndicated column. She was wondering why it was necessary to have a Pabst test when she was no longer sexually active. The doc was very kind in his response, but he did point out that beer wasn't a necessary component to the procedure.

Pabst Test!

I can't get those any more since I quit drinking.

Oldie but a goldie:

Guy goes to the Doctor and says he wants to be castrated. The Doctor tries to talk him out of it but the guy is dead set on getting one. The Doctor grants his wish and schedules the operation.

When the guy awakes from his operation he sees that there is another man in the bed next to his. "What are you in here for?" he asks the man. The man answers "circumcision"...............the guy slaps his forhead and repeats what the man said..................."CIRCUMCISION; that's the word!"

I appreciate the fact the old(er) folks are not comfortable discussing many things that today are generally held to be commonplace. (Hell, on I Love Lucy, they couldn't even say the word "pregnant"!) But what really slays me about this woman is her leap of "logic" that there is a connection between foreskin and The Gay. :rolleyes:
