So in my last column, a few statements were made by various commenters that raise issues that go well beyond the scope of just a single comment on one thread.

All of them raised issues with the specter that's haunting the LGBT community right now, and that specter is a complex set of questions that surround the notion of being part of the LGBT.

Normally, I'd pop in and simply pontificate on the peculiar principles of public participation and how patriarchal platitudes do little to promote peaceable accord.

Not this time, alliteration not withstanding. This time I'm going to put it to you, the wonderful and amazing collective of readers here. I'm going to ask a few simple questions, and then I'm going to let you answer them.
