I'm all for equal opportunity. I'm all for gays and bis, and lesbians and transsexul, transgendered, and whatever else is out there having the same opportunity as the rest of us. But to take away the rights of those who DONT believe in that lifestyle is just pushing discrimination in the opposite direction. (I think the article said that somewhere....) Why cant there be a happy medium?
True, it must be alot like integration. I hope we as a society have learned from that experience. There's a big difference in sitting in the same classroom as a little black girl (or little white girl) and not being able to use terms like "mom and dad." Hell, doesnt California have a large spanish speaking population? Their inanimate objects have a GENDER to them - el and la, what's going to happen next? actually ban spanish from school because genders have a negative conotation for those of alternative lifestyle???? in CALIFORNIA??? yeah right.
