When green is all there is to be
I watched Oprah's show yesterday on what it means to be gay in different places around the world. Sobering. Here we worry about marriage equality and protection in the workplace, and rightly so, but there's lots of places where people have much more basic concerns. Is there really so much hate within us?

That's absolutely horrifying.
Maggie, I think I knew it, but to see that list, it floored me.
It doesn't even seem real, you know? And it is real.
I'm often aware of just how good I have it, living where I do. In a neighbourhood with a high % of gay people and the remainder who are very chillaxed, in a country that is fairly ok with it all as well. When I get pissed off about perceived slights it's worth reflecting on how bad other people have it.
yes, alas there is that much hate.
it is chilling.
I know.
This is what I always think about when I hear the interminable talk about "gay marriage."
