I know how you feel about being associated with gays all the time Tink... but I have no problem walking hand in hand with them if it helps people gain equality.
I remember that the fight for women's rights was also comingled with rights for blacks. That battle helped forge the way for both minorities.
I for one am thrilled that the gay news medium and action groups include us in their fight for equality. While it puts us in the same barrel so to speak as viewed from the outside, it is a tremendous help in so many other ways. If we can make the world safe and equal for everyone first, we can sort out the sexuality aspects of it all later.
