Tomas, I think what Savannah and Dale were trying to say is that, when advertising our community, we need to appeal to the middle and look as "normal" as possible.
It's totally gross, but marketing works. People are superficial. And when we're trying to combat the concept of all gays being either freaks, pedophiles or sluts, we need to put up a "family-friendly" face.

EQCA could use a stronger ad, but they need the money to make one.

I'm not sure how effective another ad would be anyway, given how personal this issue is. I can't even convince my own family that my wife and I deserve to be married.

Why is an "equality" organization considering associating with a beauty contest at all? Aren't these contests all about the perpetuation of the objectification of women?

Secondly, by accepting "equal" time, isn't EQCA validating her point?

Equality California http://bit.ly/3jyNCj In most states outside of California, you can still be fired just for being LGBT. Anti-LGBT forces want to take away employment rights here, too. We need to help pass the federal nondiscrimination employment act (ENDA) so all Americans can be safe. Join us in calling Congress tomorrow!

Passing ENDA: It’s up to you!

Obama gladly took our millions of gay dollars to help him get elected. He is full of flowery speeches and no action on GLBT causes like repealing DOMA, DADT and enacting ENDA.
