How do we define ‘openly gay elected official’?
If a gay politician comes out but many gay leaders never hear about it, is he really out?
In the last two weeks, Georgia’s gay political landscape got its own version of that oft-quoted question: If a tree falls in the forest and nobody hears it, does it make a sound?
Within days, our state’s short list of known openly gay elected officials jumped by two. Any way you look at it, that’s progress.
But the ensuing reaction raised interesting questions about what it means to be “out,” especially in metro Atlanta in 2011, where gay people are more mainstream than ever, but many still fear discrimination both within their families and the community at large.
About The Bi Girl Who Lives in War Town
This is a blog of the musings of a bisexual agnostic atheist woman living in Warner Robins, GA (aka War Town).
I am Pro-Choice and Pro-LGBTQIA and Women's Rights.
I created this blog as a way to blog about how women, the poor, the immigrants, how the people of different faiths, and the LGBTQIA community are treated in my town, the Middle Georgia area, and my state. This is a way to try to spread the news to others so that the people can become educated and aware of what is going on around them.
I will also blog about my own personal experiences.
If you are from here (or from anywhere) and have a story to tell, please do not be shy and submit it or put it in my ask.
We shall not be silenced. All of our voices must be heard.
