As I've said numerous times before, the reason the established gay activist community doesn't want to go the litigation route is that it gives them no power or influence. And... Gay for brunch.

As I've said numerous times before, brunch is stupid. Eat breakfast or eat lunch, just make up your GODDAMN MIND. I eat both. Separately.

I didn’t read the article as litigation vs. legislation: Outfront MN and a couple other gay rights groups don’t appear to support either tack on this issue out of fear of backlash.

But since when do a few activists get to speak for the entire GLBT community? And what about all the people that ARE active on this issue?

There seems to be a historical momentum factor that the cautious are missing.

I can see both sides of the argument for legislation vs litigation. The proponents of legislation make the completely legitimate argument that we have legal precedent working against us in Minnesota. The proponents of litigation want to stop fartin' around and make something happen. I honestly don't know which is the better way to go, but work is happening on both of those fronts.

I would wait for Christmas. Better to completely wreck a bigger holiday. A former BF came out to his family on Apple Butter Day (He was from Southern Illinois) and completely wrecked the tradition going forward.

There was a lot of hugging between the chick and I, but no tongue.

Dougie- I already love AbFab… do I have to come out to my husband and in-laws on Thanksgiving?

Max is gay for anything that has legs, involves cheese or grote.

Flaming! Please report to the nearest homosexual to complete your indoctrination and pick up your lapdog and copy of the Ab Fab complete series box set.

Gay for brunch.

I myself am gay for late-night snacks.

I went to brunch yesterday. Does that mean I’m now gay??
