lawyers of all sorts, including myself, came out of the closet only after bowers versus hardwick declared everyone potentially in a lot. then the story ends at least partly with slauson. mom the supreme court declared w floor for state regulation with sexual engine and minorities and these people cannot be all laws. the state cannot declare all gender and sexual variation to be a malignant enemy of the state and must provide for some degree of tolerance. the new norm is what i call it tolerable sexual variation. the supreme court has left the states a great deal of leeway to push for heterosexuality, is not an entirely equal playing field as demanded by the u.s. supreme court. the part of my argument of the book is this prepares the way for the marriage, which if successful in states like california and massachusetts would be a movement away from even a tolerable variation to the notion that sexual engender variation, at least much of it is benign. and that people who were sexual engender minorities should be treated with exactly the same dignity and respect as a heterosexual minority as.
