Please do link, honey! And it's so good you can talk to your son and his friends about this. I wish the articles were better. Actually, the autostraddle one is good. The local news blogs don't always have the most compelling prose.

It's kind of cool, actually, that I have over time witnessed both boys cutting back on the use of "that's so gay" (and "that's so retarded") when simply meaning something stupid. And Matthew and Justin both joke around about how they're going to get married, etc. -- to me. (Well, I'm pretty sure Matthew's bi-sexual anyway, based on conversations we've had. But my point is they're both starting to GET that words can hurt.)

I also sent information about the project on to a couple of friends who have quite a few gay friends, one couple has a daughter now, thanks to surrogacy, and I'm hoping maybe they'll do videos, too.
