valid... I don't think arguments of social discourse, unless being
used to discuss the internet specifically, should include conditions
brought about as the result of the internet as a medium of discourse.
Then again, I also don't think the "you don't have to disclose it"
argument should be used for gay or bisexual people either - (unless
it's a discussion about hiding things) - they shouldn't be forced to
hide anything. If blacks could hide their skin color, I would want
them not to hide it and I would want them not to want to hide it. Not
to mention that, just being alive and going about your daily business
is always done at the risk of someone(s) becoming aware that you
exhibit some quality which they can hate. And when they find out they
tend to tell all their friends so their friends can beat the rush and
start hating you. So if you can hide it, you can only hide it for so
long or from so many people. Or you have to keep moving on from one
place to another trying to find some new area where people don't know
you yet.
