...wish I had been there . It was perhaps the largest gay wedding celebration ever. [more detailed account here.]

Working, watching, hoping for such a day here.


Oh, but wait, perhaps same gender marriage is ALREADY LEGAL in most U.S. states and is recognized federally ! (In spite of DOMA)

If there is not a clear biological definition of gender (ie XY just doesn't cut it sometimes),
quote:
why not simplify the whole matter, surrender our obsession with a fixed and binary sex classification that doesn’t actually exist, and just let any two people who love each other get married?
Opinion source: this article at the Salt Lake Examiner.

Unfortunately, too many people think they know how others should live their own lives. Even if they don't fit into a convenient box.

It's sad, but what can you do?
