By Brody Levesque (Washington DC) OCT 22 | The White House released President Barack Obama's contribution to Dan Savage's 'It Gets Better' project late yesterday.
In light of the recent controversial DADT issue that has the administration coming under fire, Gay activist, political blogger, and journalist Joe Jervis wrote on his webpage this morning:

"It's a heartfelt, well-written, and sincerely delivered message. Let's try to divorce this effort from "the other issue" and talk about what a message like this from the President of the United States might mean to a young queer kid. And once again, let's thank Dan Savage and his husband Terry Miller for what is easily the most successful and widely-heard pro-gay campaign in the history of our movement."

Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
So it is up to you. If you post here we assume that you are of legal age to do so or have consent if not, and we do not want to know any different
