Gay Equality

Homophobia will
be over, when "coming out"
is not reported.

[Why do Entertainment mags always have stories when a person, especially an actor or athlete, comes out? Because we are still a long way from it not being gist for the news cycle, I suppose.]

Such a shame in this day and age it has to make the news, a person's sexuality really isn't important to anyone but themself. Last week have just had out first same sex marriage on our little Island and that hit the headlines!:-) hugs Jan xx

What is your island? One of my nieces just entered a same-sex marriage. I couldn't travel up to Ohio, but I am happy for her. I want people to be happy. We have such a short spin on this planet, ya know.
