Well, at least you're being honest Kelda!

Bruce, thank you for the link. I'll definitely read this article.

And Clyde, I very much agree with you comparing a long term relationship to taking al long trip. That is so true.

David In Indy:
Unfortunately 1969 is 2008 in some parts of the US. Why is it some straight people think every gay relationship is a perpetual penis quest? God, that makes me so mad I feel like going outside and boxing someone's ears. When I look at my boyfriend, or even think about him for that matter, I see much more than his penis. I see his eyes, his hair, his intellect, his love for me, the way he smells, the way he holds me, the way he looks at me. His penis is only a part of him. There is sooo much more to Alex than just his penis!

But.... I also think the gay community has failed in some ways. Let's face it folks, Gay Pride Parades are wonderful  but waving 8 foot dildos in front of a homophobic crowd is NOT the way to earn respect. We won't get anywhere until we begin to act responsibly.

If we, as gay people INSIST on acting differently, the world will continue to treat us differently and this means continued separation from mainstream society. Having pride in who we are is very important, but we also must work to conform.

Okay. I said it. And now I feel better.
