It’s time for the LGBT muny to stop fearg the word “choice, ” and to reclaim the digny of sexual aversn to that word our muny stems om belief that if we n’t prove that our gayns is blogilly termed, then we won’t have grounds to mand equaly.

Argug that gayns is as geilly fixed as race might have bolstered our rhetoric a few years ago, but is necsary to argue that way now?
