This thread made me chuckle.
After being out for 30+ years, it is the same never ending, always growing and changing identity, labels, individuality, all inclusive nonsense. We, as a community cannot agree on any of the terms and inclusions but we expect outsiders to accept and understand the free for all we call a community?
And, we cant agree on this but feel we have the right to judge and comment on how someone else sees their own relationship? Do you really care what words Cynthia Nixon uses to describe her partner? Is like the world going to stop revolving if they have their own way of being that doesnt coincide the the multitude of opinions just within this thread? Isnt that their right?
When you stop and think about it....maybe the slow growth of acceptance is being fueled by our own need to constantly reinvent the wheel everytime we hear of a new word or term or identity or whatever. Heck, Cynthia Nixon is my opinion is just a heterosexual lesbian.....but thats a whole 'nother topic.....lol.
If we cant agree on it and accept it, why should anyone else accept it?
