[edit] AIDS
I enjoy the article. Shouldn't it discuss AIDS, though? Durova 23:32, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Currently no other country recognizes same-sex marriages as legally valid.
Should that line be deleted? It seems redundant considering the sentance two paragraphs above it.
[edit] The difference between "Gay" and LGBT
From the article on the word gay: The term also sometimes includes transgender, transsexual, and intersexual. Some trans and intersexed individuals find their inclusion in this larger grouping to be offensive.
It is my understanding that the other letters in LGBT represent groups who often find that their needs and issues have been overlooked by a majority in favor of exclusively male homosexual issues. Grouping all of these people under the banner gay cements this simplification in language.
I've changed the beginning of the article so as not to conflate these terms. Omphaloscope » talk 17:16, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] opener
First sentence does not make sense —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.13.140.27 (talk) 17:20, 8 December 2006 (UTC).
- Thank you for your comment. It was very helpful pointing out how the first paragraph migrated into nonsense, though I would strongly recommend that you keep the comments on the Talk page itself. Cheers.--Burzum 18:25, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
