    Greetings,

    U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, made a very important point in this article:

    Of course, coming out is important to each one of us, but it is equally important for every one of us.

    i saw a portion of that interview, really great to see. i do hope the supreme court in the US rules in favour of same sex marriage, it would be a hugh step forward, but i know the fight will continue as the haters engage in fear based tactics to keep their status quo.

    True, so very true. When we come out, we open our loved ones' eyes to the fact that it's not just something that affects "other people." Thanks for linking to that.
    Good luck to the US for same-sex marriage.

    Alabama is now the 35th state to make same sex marriage legal. I am ecstatic about this. Now if I can land a man who wants to marry me we can. :badgrin:

    Ginsburg is spot on. Never thought it would happen.

    I love RBG. A special thanks to Bill Clinton for putting her on the court in the first place.
