It's very disheartening that you all think Dan Choi's protest was a bad idea. Civil disobedience has clearly been one of the most effective tools...
I met Dan Choi and talked with him for a minute or two at the NYC Pride Rally (I even got to take a picture with him!). He is a very cool person;...
Don't worry, you'll progress from half-closeted gay to rainbow-bracelet-wearing-in-public gay in no time (well, if you live in a place where you...
Hey, I recently wrote an op-ed for one of my school's publications concerning gay rights. I thought you might like to read it. As background, my...

Now, I'm not transexual, but allow me to rebutt several points. 1. You say that "the fact is, you weren't born with a male mind." Really,...
But wait, you're using the Black civil rights movement of the 1960s to justify something other than non-violence? It was precisely the...
