Quotation:

bullet"The center is shifting because millions of 'Dick Cheneys,' people in the middle who might prefer not to think about the rights of gays and lesbians, one day see the issue indelibly stamped with the faces of their daughters, sons, neighbors and friends." Margorie Williams, 2000-OCT-13, Washington Post. 1

Introduction:

This section records important developments since 1996 in what has been called "the gay agenda" -- i.e. working towards:

bulletAchieving equality for persons of all sexual orientations in areas of employment, accommodation, freedom of assault, etc. 
bulletAcceptance of all sexual orientations (heterosexuality, homosexuality and bisexuality) as normal, natural human variations.

Since this web site is aimed at North American visitors, we have included Canadian news affecting the homosexual community. There are many major developments "north of the border" which may indicate the direction that the U.S. is headed in the future.

Listed below are news items of general interest. For news in specific areas, see:

bulletStatements and policies of religious groups towards homosexuality
bulletStatements by mental health organizations about homosexuality
bulletDevelopments in same-sex Marriages
bulletGay-lesbian support groups in public schools

[Comments within square brackets] are added by ourselves. [Sometimes we cannot resist.] Items from the most recent month are listed first.
