Excellently put.
I have an issue with someone, it's because they're being a ******; not what their skin colour is, who they pray to, or who they're attracted to.
One thing that annoys me though is how people bang on about tolerance, but sometimes forget that tolerance is a two way street. If you want someone to respect your right to do something, you should respect their right to disagree with it

Around Adelaide's parklands traditional male-female toilets are disappearing and being replaced with unisex cubicles, each with washing facilities and canned music to drive yobbos out as soon as possible. I think this is a good idea, as handling door knobs in traditional loos is likely to be a chancy affair.

Personally I like the idea that a strict male/female divide becomes blurred, everyone should be able to have their own private space and the same opportunities in society regardless of what turns them on.
