I really don't think you have any right to tell me to hang in there, you've not been "there". 15 yrs ? Would you have the balls to tell that to MLK ? And yes, it is the same thing, I certainly didn't choose to be gay. Who would choose to be hated, told their family doesn't matter, left out of their biological family, denied health care, denied housing, denied a job, denied parental rights for their biological children, on and on...

River (don't patronize, placate, or pity me) DO SOMETHING TO PROMOTE TOLERANCE AND CHANGE.

Be yourself...in about 15 yrs there will be a lot more liberal-minded older people who will have more power...the youth didn't show up like they promised coz nobody wants to stand in line with old folks 4 hours...
