We can all take a moment, I think, to acknoweldge that on a philosophical level none of us seem to inherently disagree with each other. The issue is one of practicality, first and foremost. What's acceptable behavior and what isn't. Jesse: You are good at expressing what should be acceptable. What baffles me, however, is how to fight for it. All I'm saying is that we need to choose our battles very wisely as far as how to make it happen. Your negativity toward me suggests that you want to fight each and every battle that is possible to fight, which I will readily admit, is valiant. The reason I choose not to do that is because it simply has not worked very well through the last century. None of us are ever going away. Boy love is not going to go away. But I'm a big believer in building up ammunition (so to speak). We utilize the opportunities we do have to extend ourselves outward in ways that are beneficial, supportive, and loving. If we support future generations wholeheartedly and we allow ourselves to exist and nurture forward, we can hopefully make enough of a difference to improve the future for everyone including ourselves. We have to get involved in a massive way. However, we can't allow our sexual inclinations define who we are. Let's be real. In this time in history, that only works for heterosexual people. |
