Yes. Who would have thought? Seems like it has gained steam, too. Once a few of the Cards in the House of Cards fall away, the House can't stand much longer. It will likely be a decade before it's equivalent to racial inequality, which is still there, but no longer appropriate in the general public discourse.

In other words, it won't be cool to use gay slurs because people will no longer laugh....even in discomfort. They'll look at you like you belched or something.

I've been awaiting this change for fifty years... DonViejo Feb 2014 #9
