Your updates on gay rights in China are always inspiring and sometimes it helps push me about researching the whole situation in SA a bit more. despite the fact that we now have very equal rights there it seems a nasty conservative backlash is waiting for its chance to take it all away. On the topic of gay rights, Alexander suggested gay rights groups should start a campaign of being 'pro-marriage' and then I suggested rather 'pro-family' as a way of using a positive connotation to the struggle for gay marriage rights in the US. Spread the word. Oh, also looking forward to some posts about your trip! Blush-blush and thanks.

And thank you for the update on gay rights in China -- I sometimes forget to look past my own local gay struggle and see that there is even more struggle for equality elsewhere. And there's also just a lack of media coverage of international gay rights news (imagine that!) Sounds like you're having a great adventure...wish I could be there! :) Thanks for the update Jonny.
