the boobie thing

I think it's stupid that we're spending so much time talking about Janet Jackson's breast. More about why on the blog.

new large belly dance community

Belly dance has been catching on among the fat women I know online for awhile, so I figure it was only a matter of time before someone started a fat bellydance community (well, they call it BBW, but I like FAT, so there). It looks like it could be cool.

am i right?

I might not be. But I personally think that the fight for queer acceptance is universal to all queer people - that is, all laws that use gender to control who is and is not able to form a legitimate relationship with whom pertain equally to gay people, bi people and trans people. I got into a discussion on a complete stranger's LJ post about bisexuality (in which I think I didn't explain myself well enough) today that seems to counter my belief that we're in the same fight.

It was pretty typical of the tension between the gay and bi communities in general. Her contention is that, among other things I agree with to varying degrees, bisexual people are better off than gays (particularly legal-rights-wise). What do you think?
