I shared a link to Out in Nature: Homosexual Behavior in the Animal Kingdom in response:

Oh my stars. What has the world come to? Straight Pride? Really? Yes, because heterosexuals are a persecuted minority...

It always bothers me more when I see Jen post stuff like this because she used to be so liberal. *sigh*

Trust me, I know how you feel. Sometimes I think bigotry is actually a disease and previously swell people are catching it and turning into...blecch!

contagious bigotry. Pretty disturbing. I'm seeing it as sort of like zombie-ism. You get bitten by a bigot, you become a bigot.

Well, that's pretty sad (the "Straight Pride" thing).

But I enjoyed that documentary. Very interesting. I particularly liked the dance of the leopard seals -- that was lovely.

Thanks. I was looking for something that would counter the "only heterosexuality is natural" argument.

I've seen things like this pop up on my facebook feed as well - straight pride, white pride. It's quite disturbing.

What really got me riled up is that I thought the person who posted it knew better. ;-(
