No, or at least not until you mentioned it... pretty much the only gay
lingo I know I learned from listening to Frank Zappa songs (e.g. "Bobby
Brown"), plus a month or so of lurking on soc.motss.

Subject: pastoral letter?

does the term "outstreached hand" bother anyone else?
I guess it's less obvious than "willing and open mouth"

*** Catholic bishops urge parents to accept gay children

U.S. Catholic bishops released a pastoral letter Wednesday
urging
parents to accept, love and respect their homosexual children
and
warning that rejection could lead to substance abuse or suicide.
The
message, described as an "outstretched hand" to parents who
learn
that their children are gay, was developed by the National
Conference
of Catholic Bishops' committee on marriage and family. The
letter
said fundamental rights of homosexual men and women were to be
respected and defended. While it urged acceptance of homosexual
orientations, it insisted sexual intercourse be limited to man
and
wife in a marriage. For story
