Great post Randy, Really great post! I once emailed Stacy and asked her if she really wanted to be associated with the folks over at Alain's Newsletter. She never replied to me.
I applaud this post with standing ovations!

Well, Joe, I don't believe homophobia is anywhere near the problem it used to be but when it is a legitimate topic to bring up it should not be mocked.

Hi Randy,
Just so you know, I don't read most of what is on Alain's Newsletter. In fact, I have no idea what all the fuss has been about. I was asked to contribute to the newsletter by Alain and invited to just contribute the articles I write....which haven't been many.
I probably should look more into what the fuss is about...that's what I'm hearing here.
The last thing I was aware of concerning Alain's Newsletter was that Google wouldn't put it in their Google News section, and that was discussed on Janet Folger's show the day I was on with her.
Which wasn't the reason I was asked on her show. Janet asked me on to talk about my experiences at GLSEN and my article about CBS.
So, I hope that explains where I've been coming from. I know certain troublemakers like to say things I don't say or imply I have said or endorse things I don't endorse. FWIW.

Thank Randy. Now I understand why it was such a big deal to the guys at ::: NNFC - Not Nice Fan Club Chapter #4 ::: to link that whole thing about me! Augh...see, that came out of the blue when they linked me. And I guess you could say that my blog and me are guilty only by association. FWIW, I agree with you and JOE on the homophobia issue. :)

Randy, the jab's probably deserved anyway ;-), but I am working on it... Thanks for the link!

That's worth a lot. Thank you so much for sharing your part of the story. I have not checked out the rest of Alain's Newsletter but the article I did read was not newsworthy. I personally would not contribute to that newsletter based on that one article.
Stacy, I appreciate you and again thank you for coming and sharing your perspective.

Stacy, that's what I figured. I edited out the name of the blog you mentioned because I don't want any linkage or even reverse promotion of their blog on my own.

Oh, and Randy, I updated my post on the issue to accurately reflect your feelings on the issue and this post.

I don’t know the full details behind this, but I do agree with you, Randy, on the definition of homophobia. And too often it affects societal progress. It potentially causes violence, and worse.
