The Gay Battle against the Will of the People, Part One

The Gay Battle Against the Will of the People, Part One
Reporting from San Francisco - A federal trial on same-sex marriage focused last Wednesday on the similarities and differences between homosexual and heterosexual couples, with a psychology professor citing “remarkable similarities.”

The purpose of that “federal trial” isn’t mentioned until the 3rd paragraph of Maura Dolan’s story about the psycholgist’s testimony, namely ”attorneys for two same-sex couples who are trying to overturn Proposition 8, the 2008 voter initiative that reinstated a state ban on same-sex marriage.”

Prop 8 is referred to twice more, including the last paragraph: “Earlier in the day, a Proposition 8 attorney got Yale historian George Chauncey to say that gays and lesbians have become politically and socially more powerful in recent years. But Chauncey also said that discrimination persists and described writings by a Proposition 8 proponent as evidence of long-held and inaccurate negative stereotypes:” http://bit.ly/5L3h85

Case closed? Not even close. The trial continues.

Aside from the question of why a constitutional proposition democratically passed by Californians would be an issue in contention a year later, what’s missing in such testimony is some clarification of the objectivity of the psychologist, “Letitia Peplau, an expert on couple relationships” and UCLA professor of social psychology and Mr. Chauncey, “a Yale historian.”

Of what use is testmony by biased witnesses?

Put more bluntly, are Letitia and Chauncey homosexuals? . . .
