Well, what an interesting weekend.
It's hit me rather hard that in my country I can marry a man or woman and smoke marijuana where ever I'd like. Today with Ray, Christine and Phil we smoked a joint outside the Paramount Theatre on Richmond and it was totally within our legal rights.
Additionally this past Toronto Pride centred around the issue of same-sex marriage. Now at this point in my life I'm not a fan of binary relationships with people enforced by law but of course having the ability to be recognized is a plus. After talking with Ray and sharing opinions I agree that it's much more interesting and challenging to establish a loving domestic situation with a partner and be able to keep our sex life exciting and safe. To be able to be turned on by a partner's sexual escapades and share a variety of situations together would be the best of both worlds. Of course that requires a lot of trust but ultimately I think it would foster a relationship that would work well for myself and a similarly minded partner. In my experience I'd met a large minority of couples who've pulled it off long term but they're still very inspiring.
So largist marriage tangent aside I'd like to share with you an interesting article my friend Chris shared with me from the Washington Post. The views are highly nationalist which I suppose is to be expected. Some of the thinking is pretty questionable such as the implication that America invented civil rights or that it's the home of any and all cutting edge culture and art. Obviously the concept of history and proportion, respectively, are lost amidst hackneyed nationalist symbolism and a feeling of inferiority towards the little guy.
