I've noticed the furor of negative news about gays and lesbians i read while working for Queerday.com has brought me down a bit. It's utterly amazing the number of vocal people out there ready to spew such condemnation towards us. I'm used to hearing it from my family, but I guess it was nice to be generally ignored in the news. Now, we're everywhere, people looking at us, our families, our decisions, and doing their best to tear us down. Granted, there are positive voices out there, too, and i find plenty of positive comments and news to report on. But wow, I had no idea how strongly people have aligned against us.
I'm hoping this is just the backlash, and soon enough, it will drown itself out. But i don't know. the votes are still close right now. I can't anticipate what's going to happen. I just know that right now, the voices against us are so awfully loud, well-funded, and prepared. Are we as prepared?
