53. A little contradictory and a little troublesome...
Why oppose a constitutional ban on gay marriage if you're supporting gay civil unions? There is a contradiction there. If you have one, it cancels out the other.

And what do women with AIDS have to do with GLBT civil rights? The implication here is the women need to be empowered against their bisexual husbands and of course that feeds into the homophobia in many of the minority communities - if men weren't having sex with men then women wouldn't have to worry about AIDS. That's a little troublesome.

Women need to be empowered. But not as part of GLBT civil rights.
