    Tell you what–since the arbiter of all things racially motivated, YOU give US the appropriate word to use that demonstrates a deep philosophical difference of opinion between us and Obama, and happily use it.

    I suppose a little bit easier to instead let us come up with the vocabulary, while you sit back and then tell us why racist after the fact.

    Maybe they are faking this, maybe not. called being a teenager, a lot of them are filled with insecurities. Then again, a lot of people understand bi- nor homosexuality. If they are doing it for attention, pathetic. a ridiculous fad if it is a fad… but possible it is not a fad. You could be dealing with a lot of young women your age who have decided to come out… and yet a lot of them have their regrets.

    The way I see it: there are probably a handful of girls, say 70% of those who are doing this, that do it for the attention. Out of that 70%, 10% is faking, just to fit in. The rest is for real, and half of those regret ever coming out, and blame it on the fad, that way they really have to explain themselves.

    Just brush it off and live your life. Attention-seekers want your attention. give it to them, and let them have their drama elsewhere.

    Greetings from Belfast !

    Delighted to learn of your witness in the UK. I just found out
    through a brother in Ayr,Scotland who sent me the story of your arrest in Glasgow from Scottish Daily Mail. We are sickened indeed by the denial of free speech in any of our United Kingdom and believe me evil forces continue to work
    to deny us our within the church as well as in the Open Air. Please let me have your e.mail address as my church has an annual witness every summer on a Saturday
    in July/August just prior to the annual Pride parade.
