Hi Lori,
Welcome back!
Well, gay marriage came up several times. I'm NOT saying it came up too
often. I'm not flaming you, Lori. I'm just saying that the List reflects
the interests of its members, who are, after all, unmoderated. Certianly
gay issues came up more often than, say, the AIDS epidemic in Africa, the
double edge in-fighting on the West Bank, or global warming, or even the
Olympic Games. There are lots of gay and lesbian folks (and some who've
crossed between the gay world and the straight one) and everyone discusses
whatever they please, as it was intended.
As I see it, it's not like JMDL had lots of child-bearing threads this past
year either. It's not like I've seen hetrosexuality jammed down anyone's
throat or even discussed that much. It's a warmer, fuzzy experience than
that. More asexual and apolitical.
I hope this is not a dangerous place to discuss issues dear to JMDLers. Let
me turn the tables on you, if I may, Lori. Why do you feel threatened here?
