POPSProphetic Penguins? Ecclesioleft gets all biblical on the penguin story and makes an interesting point about what could be learned from their story: "This is a teaching moment for us: how can we care for one another? ... I think we all ought to be more concerned about what we and our children aren't learning when we skip out on stories about love and support." Of course, to get there you have to make room for the notions that love and support happen in same-sex couples, that it's a good thing, and that it's something that should be encouraged because it benefits the greater good when that caring is extended to extended family, as in Rich's story. You'd have to skip out on stories of love and support that threatend to undermine the way you think the world must operate.

POPSGA Goes Gender Neutral This came as a shock, on the heels of news that the University of Arizona added gender neutral bathrooms. My alma mater where, while I was co-director of the the gay student group, we successfully fought to get a non-discrimination policy including sexual orientation , has followed Arizona's example and added gender neutral bathrooms too. And they have a LGBT Resource Center now. Lemme tell ya, that didn't happen by asking nicely. Not in Georgia.
