And what is this supposed to prove, exactly? The gay/lesbian community
isn't trying to remove rights of heterosexuals - it's quite the opposite.
The gay and lesbian community isn't trying to force people to claim a
homosexual orientation for fear that they might lose their job, be evicted
from their place of residence, or face other kinds of dicrimination. The
gay and lesbian community isn't trying to "sterilize" the realm of human
sexuality by mandating that kids not be taught about the heterosexual
orientation. Do you seriously think that gay activists would have any
reason to say such "nice" things if the gay and lesbian community weren't
constantly under attack by the religious right?
