etumukutenyakWhen one bear posted an interesting snip of comment (http://matociquala.livejournal.com/984337.html), another bear -- that would be me -- posted a reply to the comment, which I shall reproduce below for my own pleasure.
""Their solidarity, financial clout, and brilliantly executed battle strategy netted them a watershed victory--one that would help change our culture!"
Oh, yes. Because, you know, us Gayz have the Clout and can force people to vote for us -- or else we will redecorate their houses, repot their flowers, fix their sinks, rebuild their decks, and neuter/spay their pets. Also, we will police their neighborhoods, rescue their families from burning houses, collect their taxes, write their newspaper articles, deliver their pizzas, teach their children, preach in their churches and synagogues, mow their lawns, play professional sports on their TVs, dress well, cook and serve those restaurant meals, clean up after their crowds, roof their houses, make their blockbuster movies, deliver their appliances, take their phone calls, write their wills, process their paperwork, paint their houses, research their diseases, keep their pets healthy, keep them healthy, worry about our own families, pay our taxes, shovel our driveways and sidewalks, and -- in general -- act just like everyone else in the neighborhood -- only without any legal protection of our relationships.
Ahem. A button was pushed. Sorry.
I remember when the DSM was modified to remove the "homosexuality" diagnosis. Charles Socarides, a proponent of the "pre-oedipal" theory of "the cause of homosexuality" was a major player in the controversy (he was for keeping it) and sure enough, his son Richard is openly gay. Do you think that -- if there is a god/dess -- she was laughing at Dr. Socarides? "
Bears like to chat, over honey cakes and tea. I'm sure no one ever realized this, which is why so many people succumb to wild bear attacks. Tea is very civilizing.
