I waited desperately for a chance to use it in a sentence to confuse and enrage my friends. One never came up. Had I known the very next word in the dictionary was "hibernal," I could have been as impressive like LuJeeves Stumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17716700263908484003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-48392342736270615702013-12-09T20:53:19.364-05:002013-12-09T20:53:19.364-05:00I need a guideline to explain where homophobia end...I need a guideline to explain where homophobia ends and heterosexism begins. Are they synonymous, or are they actually similar yet clearly distinct concepts,, like sociopathy and psychopathy?

The stories only occasionally match the teaser headlines. Why shouldn't Salon copy their model for success? I think the youth of the writing staff may reflect financial problems. Also, experienced writers won't want to write this kind of stuff and children won't know any better because they have been reared on it.<br /><br />Along with the tabloidization of the internet (and commercial TV) there have arisen successful niche markets to support higher quality content. Readers who object can go there. Of course, because it takes a choice to get there, people won't have their opinions challenged or their knowledge broadened, as they would by real journalism. They will have their preexisting views validated.<br /><br />I'm not sure whether the complaint is about the content of Salon or about its label as a liberal voice. If the problem is that it reveals that the readership on the left can be as dumb as the readership on the right, why shouldn't that be true? Salon is doing this because readers like it, even liberal readers. I don't know how to fix that except by promoting better K-12 education, as Somerby is already doing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
