When a Man (or Woman) Loves a Woman (or Man) or Whatever

I missed this last week on kausfiles. (Scroll down to "Open book/PC Hell"-- hey what's with the godfather of blogging not having permalinks to individual posts? I guess it's kind of charming, in a quaint old world way):

Jada Pinkett Smith, honored as the Harvard Foundation for Intercultural and Race Relations' "Artist of the Year," gives an inspiring "ladies! you can have it all!" speech.

The following week, the Harvard Foundation for Intercultural and Race Relations joins forces with the Bisexual, Gay, Lesbian, Transgender, and Supporters Alliance to denounce their own Artist of the Year for being offensively "heteronormative." The Foundation is in effect joining the BGLTSA in demanding an apology from itself, if I'm reading this article right. I love it when that happens.

I'm getting a topsy-turvy Dan Quayle/Murphy Brown vibe here.
