Visibly Queer

When I first started reading this article, I just groaned. Honestly I am not a philosophy buff, and politics and all that is often a lot of doublespeak for me. It wasn't too hard to discern the basic point of the article, though. I thought it was pretty interesting that the interviews revealed a pretty parallel kind of society to our norm. People think that the whole SM thing is deviant and whatever but it's completely normal within their kinds of communities. It just goes to show that it's all relative. Who can say what is or is not normal? It changes with time, place, etc. So basically there is no real solution to reconciling wrong and right within a given society. By the time comprehension dawns upon everyone, everything changes anyway. Still, I guess we've made some pretty good progress. And I just have to say I'm glad I grew up in New York.
