See ya at AO! Owned by Remi #?

Is 35 years ago long enough ago for ya? Yeah, that's still around. It was adapted from the triangle badges that gay prisoners in Nazi camps were forced to wear and is displayed now as a symbol of gay pride. It's not "new" and it has not been redesigned. It's been the logo of the Human Rights Campaign for 18 years, just like I said. I've had one on every vehicle I've owned for just about as long. http://preview.hrc.org/about_us/13838.htm Again, nope. There's no "new" pink one. HRC simply asked supporters to adopt a red-tinted version of the logo for a period around the time that SCOTUS was hearing the Prop8 and DOMA arguments. Kinda like when a a bunch of websites darkened or blacked out their banners in protest of SOPA and then went back to status quo later. http://www.hrc.org/StandForMarriage Look guy, as I said... I've been a living, breathing, and occasionally bleeding, card carrying queer for 35 years. My experience in the gay community is not limited to once having supervised a few dozen snarky gay hairdressers. You're not an expert on gayness. Owned by Remi #?

It's been around for 18 years. Congrats for noticing it just now. Owned by Remi #?

Agreed, but it's not that difficult. Current law allows a consenting man and a consenting woman to marry, but not if they are too closely related. New laws can allow 2 consenting adults to marry, but not if they are too closely related. Owned by Remi #?

Can't approach using consent in a sentence... doesn't get the basic meaning of consent. Owned by Remi #?

Do I have a history of stupid statements that "we're" aware of? Please enumerate. Owned by Remi #?

So.. you seem to have a basic grasp of the meaning of consent. You just can't use it in sentences yet. Owned by Remi #?

But that's not like, gay. Owned by Remi #?

Nah. I've never charged anything. Owned by Remi #?

I don't consider sexual freedom narcissic[sic] Owned by Remi #?

I hope I get a chance to buy you guys a beer someday. Edit to add: You too, Billvon Owned by Remi #?

Ohhhhh, okay. You win. Owned by Remi #?

No it isn't Owned by Remi #?

How's he going to prove he's gay at the interview? Owned by Remi #?

Dude, here's a newsflash. Gay people can and do have sex to procreate. Real, man on woman sex. There's nothing about being gay that makes it physically impossible to have hetero sex. No vaginas are sewn closed in the making of a lesbian. Some couples chose clinical methods, some chose the turkey baster option, and some just do it the old fashioned way with a willing (or ignorant) third party. Think about that hot lesbian threesome... and the possible results. Guys may have a more difficult or at least a more complicated path, but it's entirely possible to find someone who's willing to bear a child the old fashioned way for a friend, just like some straight couples do. No clinics, doctors, or kitchen appliances required. Are you really so far out of touch that you don't understand this? It's really not far removed from the medieval cultures that married one person for heirs, bloodlines, and inheritance and maintained separate personal relationships... just kinda the other way around.

No. I think that part of the decision about being a donor is accepting that you don't have a choice about where the organ goes. If I donate, there's a chance that a total asshat might get one of my organs. I hope it's my liver... but there's always also a chance it would go to a wonderful person. If I don't donate, no one gets anything. I can live (pun intended) with the odds. Owned by Remi #?

I suppose so Owned by Remi #?

Noooo.... you must continue to pass judgement Owned by Remi #?

You didn't answer my question. Should an effeminate man be allowed to father a child with a masculine woman? An oh... a gay man and a gay woman can most definitely have children. Owned by Remi #?

That's an approach that assumes that people who donate deserve to live more than people who don't. The decision to donate or not isn't always an educated one. How many donors organs go to waste? I'm just saying that I don't want to pass judgement on potential recipients or decide what intent they might have. To me, it's too complicated. Owned by Remi #?
