There is a specific reason that I sometimes post to these threads, Don.

That reason is that I think the politicians and demagogues in the current political era are cynically using various gender-based issues deliberately to sow division and controversy among the electorate. THAT is the one aspect of the situation that genuinely concerns me.

I couldn't care less who is "gay" and who isn't. That simply doesn't matter. What difference could it make? What I care about is how the mass media and the politicians are exploiting and sensationlizing the gay rights issue for their own gain. They are using it to manipulate people and to get attention and sell air time. They are posturing in various insincere ways, grandstanding, and stirring up outrage on both sides in order to empower themselves, and people are falling for it.

THAT is why I comment on the issue. I think you people who are endlessly fighting over gay rights here, both lots of you on both sides of the issue, have fallen right into the trap that the mass media and the politicians set for you. That is why I come onto these threads and say what I do.

Gay lifestyles are a complete non-issue to me. I....don't...care. However, the way the mass media and the politicians are pandering to spinning outrage OVER gay rights issues, is NOT a non-issue to me! That's what concerns me.

Get it?
