Interesting. All primates seem to have a lot in common with each other. That includes us humans of course.

interesting article, inky- thanks! I thought the reaction to the "stay healthy stay negative" banner was really sad, but also understandable.

Since the following was produced for HS students at public expense and distributed publically by GLB organizations in Massachusetts, I thought it good to reference here.
http://www.article8.org/docs/news_ev...ook_inside.htm commentary from a conservative perspective is available too: http://www.conservativegroundswell.c...olor_at_least/

I read most of the article - where was the banner thing?
EDIT: Cross-posted with IRex. Gay porn? Where? I want some... EDIT2: Oh, the Black Book. I wish they had passed this out in my high school, even though gratuitious swearing in a thinly disguised attempt to be hip has never impressed me. But really, teenagers are going to figure all this out. I think it's a good idea that people are given all the facts - about lubrication and condoms, not just what their friends will talk about. I don't know if this book is the right way to go about it though. Not really the positive stuff I'd like to be talking about just shortly after the International Day Against Homophobia, but what can you do.

Well, I have some good news : there was a demonstration in Stockholm, Sweden, during IDAHO ( International Day Against Homophobia ) , and over 400 people showed up there, including three ministers. They had a similar event in Malmö also, but I'm not sure how many showed up there.
RFSL: IDAHO

No need to feel ashamed, as long as you remember it next year!
