Obligatory Gay Marriage Post of the Day - Not all the gays in California are running to San Francisco to be married. Just look at the examples cited in this story about the older gay community in the Orange County City of Laguna Beach and how this crowd of longtime partners is disinclined to marry. But aren't these precisely the kind of committed, loving, older couples we need to make our case? We need a counterbalance to the pervasive stereotypes, says the Boston Globe: "America may embrace gay men who don't stray too far from stereotypes -- it's no mistake that the cliched and flamboyant [Carson] Kressley is also the most popular figure -- but it isn't as easily accepting of gay men with political opinions and relationships of their own for which they demand legal recognition." But we are making headway in other arenas, as the Supreme Court has allowed 2nd-parent adoptions to stand.
