Oh, you don't know how great you made me feel with that last post Harvest Moon!
I agree with you 100%. I'm all for gays just being left alone and treated as people. But as it is with certain "femenists" and "black rights activists" and other people of this form, they get "equality" and "special treatment" mixed up. You say you want "equality", so how do you try to achieve it? By dancing around out in the street waving pink flags in leather boytoy bondage gear to it's raining men? Ummm....
wrong answer...
I think gays getting married and going out to dance together and whatever is cool. But the pride parades and the basic selling of homosexuality as it is currently, or so it seems (Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, anyone?), it's rediculous. Gays are people too, but there's absolutely no reason to throw your sexuality in everyone's faces like that and then turn around and say "OMG HOMOPHOBE!" when someone says something about it.
