Yes. I'm hopeful that eventually the U.S. supreme court will say state laws prohibiting same-sex marriage are unconstitutional. Laws should not discriminate against individuals based on their sex/gender. The fight for legalizing same-sex marriage is, I feel, basically a fight to say that whether I am a "man" or a "woman" should not be a factor in determining whom I may marry. This is a gender issue.

Heh heh...even lowly IOWA, often seen as backward and conservative, allows same-sex marriage, while liberal New York doesn't. It is sad that people haven't managed to legalize same-sex marriage in New York yet, and that the opposition is apparently so strong there.

AwwSugar, The Human Rights Campaign is a great organization to join, I feel, to support same-sex marriage in the U.S....and even single pansexuals can join! I became a member long ago in the 1990s after I heard a talk by HRC member Candace Gingrich, conservative Newt Gingrich's half-sister. HRC does a very good job organizating rallies and working on political and judicial issues, both on a local level and a national level. I bet New York has a very large HRC organization but could always use more support.

I like this description. "Pansexual." I think I am very similar to you, Aww, in this way. I had never heard of this term before: pansexuality. Pansexuality - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia But that is exactly how I feel. Thank you! You taught me something new, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE learning something new.

Especially about sex.
(I'm actually kidding about the sex part. I really just like learning new things.)

I wouldn't have guessed that pansexuality means what it does. I kind of expected it to mean one has a thing for this guy/fawn:
