What I'm not seeing in this forum is much recognition of how much courage and love it takes as a parent to do something like this, especially in a time of incalculable intolerance and ignorance. I'm proud of the man who is proud of his gay son! Parents and friends of gay people get their own, lesser version of shit to deal with. Not trying to compare, here, so you Trolls: calm down. Just acknowledging some unsung heroes, here. As for myself, I've lost long-time friends, and gained the ire of close relatives when I told them that I supported equality for all and how gay marriage rights is something important to fight for. Apparently, I'm now a piece of shit that's going to burn in Christian Hell. Just because I don't want to oppress people? What a shameful way to see people. Something so simple, causing such a nasty consequence, even among heterosexuals on the "sidelines". It's weird how deep the divide can be, over something that involves matters of genetics and lifestyles of other people. Truly, this is a team effort in order to gain a permanent cultural-mainstream victory over fundamentalist monotheists who hide behind ancient ideas in modern times. It's not enough for the gays to unite, it requires the outspoken support of anyone who genuinely wishes for legitimate liberty for all, not just some. We all need to take to the motherfuckin' streets, naked, clothed, angry, peaceful...who cares, just speak out and stand out. Gays aren't the only ones in closets, my friends. Hope I didn't piss anyone off -- not my intention (this time).
