I know someone has to be working on the compromise angle. I know that something is better than nothing, but wow, do I resent the New York Times telling me what should be "good enough" for me as a queer person.

I hate the gay marriage debate so much I don't even know where to start. It's just non-stop awful, overshaodws other critical issues for queer people and yet has symbolic primacy in terms of how we are perceived by the broader world. It's a fucking mess.

Meanwhile, I have cold and feel utterly like crap.

I made it trough the article by the skin of my teeth. They do realise they are advocating taking discrimination and then sort of legalising it by putting it into writing, right? ::facepalm:: These authors are so far removed from the core arguments of the debate they are willing to settle for something that isn't even about the basic issue. Disturbing.
