Megan Lane: brilliant poet, gifted musician, on what it's like to be gay.

The gay community around the world is constantly faced with disapproving eyes of the ignorant. It's viewed as a "choice" and unnatural. So, many take it upon themselves to make sure the gay community knows just how bad they are by backing them into corners, away from being able to turn not only the children of the ignorant into "gays", but the ignorant themselves.
It seems the most vocal, the most outspoken against the gay community are the most needing of a good long look in the mirror. Let's face it, these people are likely gay themselves. For them it is a choice, but it's not about being gay, it's about being straight. So many of these people are living a lie, acting out on their natural urges in secret at night, while during the day screaming about hellfire.
Remember Larry Craig? http://voices.washingtonpost.com/sleuth/2007/08/larry_craig_still_not_gay.html

Anyway, listen to Megan. She's just got a way of puttin' it.
