There were several gay themed articles in the news this past weekend. The Seattle Times printed, on the front page, a fairly detailed roundup of recent research that all highlights the idea the sexual orientation is determined by genes or hormones, rather than being a choice. This is of course something gay people have been saying for ages.
The New York Times Magazine, on the other hand, ran a lengthy piece profiling the anti-gay-marriage movement. Both stories are rather lengthy but really worth reading if you have the time.
And lastly, the Kansas City Star reported on a planned demonstration by Fred Phelps' group of a high school graduation in New Hampshire, solely because the school had someone who was openly gay was graduating. Although it appears the demonstration never materialized, the town went so far as to deploy polic and firefighters in around the ceremony to make sure there was no disruption.
About Me
- Chris
- I'm a twenty-something gay male, born on the west coast but transplanted to the east. I have an affinity for cheap vodka and happy hours, house music and dancing, and hanging out with the mean girls. I've got a witty and sarcastic sense of humor, and as Tos so wonderfully put it, "The only boy I know who was Premier Exec in college and makes a trip to Germany like anyone else makes a trip to the store..."
