couldn’t have said it better


“When sexual preference isn’t the first thing that defines us, but our ability to demonstrate compassion to other humans based on their very composition of skin and blood and bones — then we’ll be getting somewhere.



…The last subgroups of society it’s perfectly fine to pick on are gays, fat people and lower middle class whites and now’s not the time to start letting things slide. Either we all deserve some basic human dignity or none of us do.”

I’m trying to link to Leslie Harpold’s response to Queer Eye for the Straight Guy but something isn’t working. Anyway, you should go there and read it even if you have to scroll down when you get there.

There's another point here. I can almost see it. There's a way that this relates to the "Metrosexual v Neolad" thing that's going on [google it if you’ve not seen]. I think it's both about media and marketing and the constant corralling of individuals into targetable subgroups, and about the manner in which our society at large encourages us to tribe / to be identifiable as tribal brethren [see www.exactitudes.com]. Were I lucid, were I not too worn out to find the thread, I would make the aforementioned point. Hopefully someone else will do it for me.
