Some McSweeny’s(es?) and an Article I Hate

March 11, 2008

Abstinence Only Driver’s Ed

Some quotes:

“Take it from ME: NO premarital driving could ever have felt as good as the driving my husband and I do together.”

and

And for those of you wondering if it’s OK for you to learn to drive because you’re gay and can’t get legally married, well, don’t worry your troubled minds about that, because there’s no driving where YOU’RE headed. Everyone in Greenwich Village takes the subway.”

Also: A Letter of Recommendation for a Homeschooled Boy

Finally, this awful The Atlantic Monthly article about why we should all settle and get married already, sheeh!

“My advice is this: Settle! That’s right. Don’t worry about passion or intense connection. Don’t nix a guy based on his annoying habit of yelling “Bravo!” in movie theaters. Overlook his halitosis or abysmal sense of aesthetics. Because if you want to have the infrastructure in place to have a family, settling is the way to go.”

UGH. NO.  I recommend the opposite.
