http://www.bilerico.com/2010/10/metroweeklys_analysis_of_lgbt_movement_evolution.phpDC's MetroWeekly Magazine came out today with an analysis of the LGBT movement based on conversations with 15 LGBT leaders.
The analysis, entitled "State of Play," and written by MetroWeekly's Senior Political Writer, Chris Geidner, concludes that the LGBT movement is not properly characterized by the word "schism," which some have used, but by the term "evolution."
That's an interesting analysis, given that "evolution," in its scientific meaning, occurs slowly over many generations as a result of variant forms contending with a changing environment and poorly-adapted species failing to reproduce. Evolution is a pretty harsh mistress, and that failure means the end of your existence.
