poetics, time, body disruption and marginally queer solutions

there are many images that flashes before our eyes, and it's hard to put them all together... but there seems to be this on going subtle hidden link, or maybe many links.. but a couple for me are troubling

one problem is most do not see *gay marriage* as a civil rights issues. so, the recent comments in congress about putting the *gay marriage wild fires out,* makes sense, if it is a moral issues, those doing the evil deeds are immoral, and as one columnist wrote, this is the second front confronting amerika, the first being the terrorist, and both must be stopped.

the second underling red flag is the recent announcement of segregated schools, for *boys* and *girls*... which on the surface seems like a good idea, since there is evidence of different learning styles, but this idea further propagates a proper place for men, and a proper place for woman, which is morally based, and social construct for, separate but equal, based on some essence and or quality of character of gender. it is true there are learning differences between some, but it seems to easy to segregate, instead of addressing the dynamics of teaching, education and the social construct of gender.

so what we have is segregation, where the potential of enforced gender stereotyping can take place, queerness crushed, and the institution of marriage between a man(sic) and woman(sic) can take place in perfect harmony, with everything in its proper place...

and do not kid your self.. this is set up to get the christian conservatives and women's vote...


KEEP THE FIRES BUrNING

even if your not queer, grab someone (who looks like the same gender as you) and go and try to get married.... do it in every-town and city..
