As defined by Mahatma Gandhi:
In India when people meet and part they often say, Namaste' which means: "I honor the place within you where the entire Universe resides; I honor the place within you of love, of light, of truth, of peace; I honor the place within you, where, when you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, there is only one of us."
Is it just my imagination, or are women in general less hostile to homosexuality than men are? It often seems that men feel their masculinity is under threat somehow -- maybe there isn't (or is less of) an equivalent psychological mechanism in women?
Not accusing John McCain personally -- I think he's a moderate who has to hide it to avoid driving away too many wingnut Republican voters -- he's done that before. But I think the general principle is interesting.
Infidel~ Come to think of it, I've never encountered women who are hostile to homosexuality, but I've never thought about it before... very interesting.

McCain probably doesn't care one way or another, but he just tows the party line. Good for his wife and daughter I say.
Holte~ Wife and daughter was a pleasant surprise.
Women are smarter, and I have my wife's permission to say so...my daughter's too.
Tee~ LOL!
Tee, as long as you admit it, you're going to be just fine :)
McCain...well, he is facing re-election and a primary where they are liable to run a teabagger against him, so he has to be one too, y'know...
I do have a newfound respect for Cindy McCain now.
Bee~ Like your thinking.
