Sep 2015

especially when my fellow lgbters who strongly support her that i encounter only discuss their/our personal rights when it came to politics and are low info on all the other issues. I related to that. I get so tired of the stereotype that we all adore her when i cannot fucking STAND either her or her husband so i will "recommend" or like anything gay critical of her even if there is some over the top stuff mentioned.

many of my older gay friends really adore her m-lekktor Sep 2015 #10

Has she "evolved" in very recent years, or is this just more political expediency? DisgustipatedinCA Sep 2015 #5

It's impossible for her not to have evolved Prism Sep 2015 #8

what's the marketing part ? JI7 Sep 2015 #11
