The Right Side

The Supreme Court is wrapping up hearing arguments on California's Prop 8.  There are all sorts of possibilities for the outcome from the justices, some more decisive than others. 

But be clear: if you do not support the right for all people to marry, you are going to be on the wrong side of history.  Maybe not this week or this decade, but someday, in my lifetime, all Americans will enjoy full equality.  I'll be content knowing that I was on the right side, back when there were "sides" to this issue.

Hey, this is supposed to be a blog about fitness and working out.  What does marriage have to do with it?

Thanks for asking.  One of the most popular fitness DVD programs in the country is INSANITY®.  Creator of said program and insane (clinically, I would imagine, otherwise it would just be called DEMENTIA®) fitness freak Shaun T is gay and married.  So there.  A married gay man built a media empire.  Are you scared, Alabama?  

I happen to be straight, but if I were running the marketing strategy for marriage equality, I would be plastering his mug and hulking shoulders all over leaflets.  Am I right, ladies and/or gay men?
