BlogHer: New Post on Equality Camp SF live

Just posted: Equality Camp: BarCamp style unconference takes on Marriage Equality issues
over at BlogHer.
Here's the lede:
"EqualityCamp--held January 3rd in San Francisco--was a pilot event to bring Web 2.0 geeks who know the lessons of the Web well together with activists for marriage equality and equal rights for gays.

So, if you're straight, do you care about marriage equality? Do you want the gay and lesbian couples you know to be able to make the same civil, legal commitment to get married that straight, heterosexual couples can? Or are you afraid supporting marriage equality will lead to marrying too many same sex couples in your church, or a general decline in cultural values?

If you're not straight, are you a woman who can't marry her partner because you both share a specific sex/gender, or a trans-person who cannot marry as the gender you really are, as opposed to what you were born with?"
