Is it really that bad, people?

I am so, so tired of the conservative viewpoints against sexuality and homosexuality in this country. What is it with you people? All this post-election coverage of people defending their Republican ties as "voting their morality". And what is that? Do you realize how stupid it's going to sound in 20 years telling your kids that when you were younger gay people couldn't get married? And that your parents were alive when black people couldn't use the same drinking fountains as white people? It makes me sick.

What would be so bad about letting sexuality be, well, sexual? The only thing that's currently allowed to be full of sex in this country is consumerism. I mean, a nipple shot or two men having a makeout session is just SO WRONG, but that extreme closeup of a sizzling McDonald's burger? Break me off a piece of that.

And what would happen if we started teaching our kids about healthy sexuality, trust and intimacy, protection and the fact that sex is, well, supposed to be fun. Not some guilt-laden thing that two recently married kids fumble through in order to propagate the species. I mean, imagine if we treated food that way, even slightly. No more restaurants, picnics, or open conversations about "my favorite food" as a get-to-know-you on Timmy's first day of 2nd grade. Just a bunch of Americans stuffed into dark rooms eating their sandwiches alone, feeling guilty as hell that they ever got hungry in the first place.
