Steve,

i also find these generalizations sad the way that they are used on the media and unfortunately many people out there do take what is said for poured gold, and pour into the mold the media shape for them....

thank you Alffe and Jaspar for the links i haven't got to hear the show yet (just awake about to go to work here) but i will catch up.

Abbie thank you for the reminder that we, for ourselves, have to plug forth and remind ourselves we aren't the labels they are carrying on about, and we aren't what comes out of the media molds. yours was a lovely post.

it's just too bad what gets said over the media is what contributes to us having to worry about "coming out" ... whether it will damage our work, our relationships etc...... SUPERSIGH.
