The distinctions based on religion and race were obvious, and would seem to be irrelevant subcategories of the major category "gay"? Have I missed something? Why is e.g. religion a grouping factor within sex? Why aren't the groups divided on sexual factors within gay rather than.... who cares...why bother. -- {ucbvax|decvax|ihnp4}!sun!sunny (Sunny Kirsten of Sun Microsystems)
