The Homos and Dykes, and various other epithets

While I must admit a certain fatigue with the issue of Same-Sex Marriage being in the forefront of the news, and interminably so, IMO.... I DO GET IT. As a practical, everyday matter, workplace discrimination IS discrimination. At least when it's based on a false premise, as in discrimination based on race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, etc., rather than on one's level of achievement, skill, talent or basic qualification for a particular position. And discrimination in the realm of housing or public accommodation is just wrong, period.
