maybe. you guys seen the video of the 18 year old engineering student from iowa raised by two moms testifying before iowa lawmakers on his family? it was pretty compelling. i’ll try to dig it up. kinda makes one woder about the “in generals” what may be better are perhaps subsumed by the compellingness of the individuals…
