Let them eat cake

Wedding cake that is.

In stark contrast to my last thread on "Let them/me eat cake" which was purely about eating delicious cakes on my trip to London, I'd like to take a more philosphical view on the matter. What sparked this thread? Well it was a conversation with this guy I was talking to over the weekend. He has a very interesting take on motivating straight friends to come to gay rights rallies. His idea? He tells his friends: "If you would like to have a slice of my wedding cake and share in the happiest day of my life, come to rallies and fight for equality. I swear, I'll give you the best slice of the cake on my wedding day."

It's so simple, but it's such a nice personal touch to the issue. And at the end of the day that's exactly what we need to gain the public's support. Humanity.
