yes, I live in Missouri, and yes, I voted against amendment two which will now put a ban on same-sex marriage in the consitution because yes, it passed overwhelmingly. But I'm not as angry about it as some, though grateful to Jeff (aug 6) who wrote a letter to the Post-Dispatch after they outrageously said Missourians chose values on that tuesday, as if gay people don't have values, they just have lust. i completely expected the law to pass here, and most everywhere. after writing for target="blank"Queerday for almost a year, it's fairly obvious that most people hate us and many work to kill us. writing a ban on marriage, something we don't have anyway, into the constitution is not nearly as bad as keeping a law against us having sex, which was only overturned because of the grace of five people in the high court.
i'm moving anyway. missouri's never felt like much of a place to call home for me. i long for winter, a good solid winter with lots of snow and coats. i was thinking i would get it here, but i was way wrong. we've had three warm winters in a row, and i'm leaving. that, and friends are hard to come by in the anti-outsider city of St Louis. i'm always an outsider, so maybe i'll go somewhere where outsiders are appreciated, like NYC. but who knows about that.
