"Let's just call it an interracial civil union."
Ugh. Good thing some of the "progressives" here weren't around during the 60's. They would have enjoyed giving minorities all sorts of "alternative" choices, eh?

3. Ding, ding, ding! I got it.
I'm a 59 year old, straight white guy who pretty much grew up in San Francisco. My attitude toward other folks sexual proclivities is that I don't care if you fuck goats as long as nobody gets hurt and you don't scare the horses but I never really got the whole "it has got to be called marriage" thing until now. Thanks for turning the light on.
