I had to get a beer before posting on this.
Via the most welcome back Chillinois who will be back on the blogroll and the Modern Vertebrate Blog which will be making the blogroll as well, evidence that this Senate race is even more bizarre than I thought.
May I introduce you to Maya Keyes’ blog, written by Alan’s daughter who is incidentally a lesbian.
Chillinois and MV have some stuff, but the most amazing entry is from March 3rd
I remembered pieces of some of my (numerous) conversation/arguments with my parents on the subject of homosexuality. My father, in the middle of explaining why queers are all intrinsically awful people, no matter how lovely they may seem? in the end his argument came down to basically,
It?s inherently selfish to be queer because no matter if we say we?re in love it?s only for selfish reasons (read: we just want to hump like bunnies and don?t really care about anything else but physical pleasure) because we don?t have CHILDREN like the beautiful selfless heterosexuals. Ergo, queers live only for self-gratification and no matter what else goes on in their lives, ultimately (consciously or subconsciously) our entire existence is directed towards the purpose of self-seeking pleasure; queers are not capable of anything but selfish actions whether we know it or not.
Along the same vein, my mother, after meeting on one of my friends (one of the sweetest, smartest, politest boys I know; someone who would be great to bring home to parents. Any parents but mine.) who she couldn?t help but like, took a while to think of something disparaging to say about him because it is against her principles to actually like any of my friends and finally decided that she didn?t, after all, like him because he had a weak mouth as a result of being one of those homosexuals. She says that homosexuals are all inherently weak people, just as they are all inherently selfish people, because they don?t know how to deny themselves anything.
