NEITHER Senators CLINTON or SCHUMER, who are so beloved by the "community" supported same-sex marriage rights. -hmm MAR 2009 Empire State Pride Agenda dinner Schumer said "It's time." in line with most other top State officials excluding Shel Silver for example.

Way beyond Will and Grace... the findings are really telling about class and race and how 'official gay couples' find ways to live in and afford to raise a kid in NYC but 8-27-2008 the press spinned headlines for this story as "Bronx is the place for gay couples with kids" and the study co-author said we gotta "..look beyond 'Will and Grace' to understand the lives of gay and lesbian New Yorkers." Y2000 census figures analysed by UCLA/ The Williams Institute found about 26,000 NYC gay couples, Manhattan 38.2%, yes no. 1. BK 2- 27%, QNs 3-20%, BX 4 - 11.3%, and Staten Is. last with 3.5%! BUT of those raising kids, 32.3% of them are in BX, while only 8.5% of gay couple raising kids are in Manhattan [3rd amongst the 5 boroughs]. These must be official, domestic partners or married of course..not what we understand as "lovers" etc. otherwise that number would be hmm 10x higher or what?

DEC 5 2006 NO Gender-Bender switch-hitters please! Uber politically-correct nonsense was stopped for now.. NO Gender on demand in NYC. Commissioner Friedan backed off saying it needed more study to consider the federal identity rules. The Health Dept considered allowing switches in gender on birth certificate etc on simple request no surgery or even being serious required it thats what you want. CONSIDER the potential trouble - legal cases and criminal usage possible even if the number of people doing this miniscule !
