So there's all this wanking on about this gay rights meme going around, I'm not sure what the fuss is about (retarded as usual), I get that kind of shit all the time of Yahoo, and I just ignore it.
Anyway, in that vein of thought, here are some of my favourtie gay rights quotes:

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.  ~Dr. Seuss

If time and space are curved, where do all of the straight people come from?  ~Author Unknown

No government has the right to tell its citizens when or whom to love.  The only queer people are those who don't love anybody.  ~Rita Mae Brown, speech, 28 August 1982

When it comes to exploring the sea of love, I prefer buoys. ~ Andrew G. Dehel

If homosexuality is a disease, let's all call in queer to work:  "Hello.  Can't work today, still queer."  ~Robin Tyler

My lesbianism is an act of Christian charity.  All those women out there praying for a man, and I'm giving them my share.  ~Rita Mae Brown

When I was in the military they gave me a medal for killing two men and a discharge for loving one.  ~Epitaph of Leonard P. Matlovich, 1988

Who would give a law to lovers?  Love is unto itself a higher law.  ~Boethius, The Consolation of Philosophy, A.D. 524

I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do, because I notice it always coincides with their own desires.   ~Susan B. Anthony on Selective Bible Quoting

"Don't let the people who live on fear and hate govern how you live."--Melissa Etheridge

Interesting quotes, but a lot of them seem to be based on an assumption of love.

What happens when someone doesn't believe in love?

[skull-bearer.livejournal.com]

Umm... I have no idea. I guess it assumes that most people do believe in love. Most people I've met do.

Guess I'm just a cynic ^_^

Me too... Love is not very much a real-life thing. But even if it's just about sex, everyone has the right to have it with whomever they want, at least in my opinion.

[halokitty69.livejournal.com]

Yes, thats true.

I have a problem with the whole love thing. I am, shall we say, both ways inclined and I once said to a friend 'how am I supposed to know who to date' and she said 'whoever you fall in love with'...but I don't believe in love lol.

I am jealous of SkullBearer's Raistlin and Dalamar though...I wish people really *felt* like that IRL.

I totally agree with you... *deeeeep sigh* It's pretty much the same with me.
And reality never matches books (or perhaps I don't like the kind of book that is too much like reality).
