Puerto Rico legislature passes sweeping LGBT protections [Published Windy City Times - 9 hours ago]
"'Neurotic Society' proclaims again that Babylon is falling — thanks in part to tricksters like 'girl men,' 'drag queens,' and the lies of 'social transvestism.'

Beyond intention, these sorts of statements suggest that society is in a shambles because it’s been taking too many cues from the LGBTQ community, acting like 'girl men,' 'drag queens' and 'transvestites.' Is her beef with oppressive society or is her issue with people who don’t abide by a traditional family structure?"
