[LINK] Two Sexual Orientation Links

• I agree with dsgood on the heavy-handedness of the recent pro-GLBT rights meme that's been making its way throughout Livejournal. If I don't copy the phrase--in full, in part?--onto my Livejournal I'm somehow not supportive of gay rights? Silliness. Yes, "first they came for my neighbour" and all that, but that isn't now, not nearly, certainly not in the circles likely to be influenced by a Livejournal meme.


• jrittenhouse's thoughts about the debacle surrounding American Congressman Mark Foley, accused of sexually soliciting (among others) his teenage pages, strike me as right-on. There are psychological costs associated to coming out, but there are most assuredly more costs associated with not coming out. Look at Whitney Houston for confirmation, if you need it.
