(USA) - They were happy, but I was a bit embarrassed. Not because the couples are gay and lesbian. I just felt as if it was suddenly the '60s again and I was calling black folks to say, "Congratulations! Looks like, soon, you'll have to sit only halfway back in the bus!" Yes, finally after 29 years of failing, the Legislature had passed a bill extending Human Rights Commission protections against work and housing discrimination to gays. But marry? No way. Not yet.
