Fat people and the tobacco addicted, are not demonized except to the extent that their behavior is a health hazard. It is fair and right to point out that certain gay behaviors are also a health hazard. The policy should be to encourage healthier habits, but I suspect few thing consuming too many calories should be made a crime, or that smokers should become felons. At some point, there must be a right to choose. I also think that being addicted to cigs or Big Macs, is a different category from the issue of sexual attraction, and the matter of choosing just whom will be one's most significant other. But that is just my opinion. And on this matter, EVERYBODY has an "informed" opinion.

And so it goes.

You could have fooled me. Ask them how they are treated in the media nowadays.

And then ask if gays could politically be subject to the same approach.
