the Pgh Bloggers Guild have deemed Monday, March 31, 2008 as a day for blogging about the proposed "Marriage Protection" Amendment to the Pennsylvania Constitution.






i'm blogging!


why? well, i'll tell you a little story about why.
back when i was in catholic grade school i was pretty well clueless
about a lot of subjects including gay. in fact, when kids at school said things about the subject(and that wasn't often. keep in mind i'm 56)i truly thought they had made up the whole thing!
clueless, i told you!

anyway, when i was 16 i met and got to know some people that were(and still are, i'm sure)gay. guess what?
gays and lesbians are just like everyone else. yep!
some nice, some not, some funny, some serious and on and on.

BUT

even if i had NEVER EVER met a gay person in my life
i would still believe and argue for them to have the exact same rights as everyone else.

WHY?


because they and we and everyone ARE everyone else.

it's the right thing to do.
