    good for her. I think that the 170 population in her town helped in a very positive way because she could easily get to know everyone, which means they could see that she isnt some child molesting harpie like some people like to claim.

    she is letting them see that her sexuality is really not a issue, expecially when it comes to her being a advocate and leader for her community.

    ... it is all about fighting the vulger dehuminization and demonization by showing them the truth, and huminizing the issue of lgbt equality.
