Funny first email of the morning. I have folks across the spectrum in my life, including some Canadian conservatives who like to think they're centrists.
One is undergoing a friend break-up. The ex-friend has come out of her egg, is undergoing transition, and no longer wants to be associated with someone who views women the way she feels that this person does.
I'm happy for her. It's also really fascinating to study how this in-denial-about-how-conservative-he-is fellow is processing the news.
I'll be writing more about Pride tomorrow for the newsletter, precisely because as someone who "passes" in many ways, I get to hear things from "the straights" that many would never say the same way in the presence of people they see as "overtly" queer...
And as much as it's taxing at times, it also reminds me of our richly muddled humanity. How many of us go our whole lives without figuring out how to live well together. How we struggle to get past abstracted fears to see the human in us all.
ANYWAY, I was offline most of yesterday, but a big ol' happy month of human'ing well together to us all.
