Pardon me if I have trouble taking seriously anything that might issue forth from one so credentialed.
Yeah, yeah, yeah...but does she know how to change a flat tire?
Why is there such a position? What useful curriculum could possibly be derived from such a course of study? What marketable skill could be gained? What facts could be learned?
Excerpt from an article by Prof. Lewin (”radical antipathy to marriage as a patriarchal institution”):

...Why has marriage become so central to questions of gay/lesbian rights? How has this happened when lesbians and gay men are themselves so divided over the issue? I would like to outline a few ways that we might think about these questions. I base my comments on the research I carried out on same-sex commitment ceremonies (Recognizing Ourselves: Ceremonies of Lesbian and Gay Commitment, 1998), on other anthropological work I’ve done with lesbian and gay families in the US, and on my own experience as a participant in the struggle to achieve the right to marry.
My views on this issue, which had long rested on a radical antipathy to marriage as a patriarchal institution, shifted dramatically after my spouse and I were united in a Jewish ceremony in 1992 and after I studied some 60 same-sex couples who staged commitment ceremonies of various kinds — none at that time legally sanctioned...

You see it everywhere...lib talking heads on the news programs, etc. They sense that obama is a failure and doomed to defeat, but have not fully accepted it yet. Remember the 5 stages of loss: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance. Many libs are in the anger phase.
Yes she did, in fact, The origins of the U.S. debutante presentation can be traced to 1748, when fifty-nine colonial Philadelphia families held a Dancing Assembly, the forerunner of the Debutante Coming Out Ball. I think that pre-dates the LGBT movement...maybe.
They should fire this ugly lesbian.
What’s her DU screen name?
Dunno. She wouldn’t stand out there.

Ellen, it’s Passover. Bad time to be sending out vulgar emails.
Laz would hit it.
‘Hawk would just make fun of it.
