Marriage is so gay

I've heard the phrase, "That's so gay." from youth and only once from a student (it wasn't meant to be nice). But it was great to see the phrase "Marriage is so gay" on a t-shirt in a New York crowd. Here's a wrap up of news reports, including a photo of a rainbow Empire State Building. There are also three videos of the festivities, each about 2 minutes. Don't bother with the middle one.

A correction to what I wrote earlier. There were four GOP senators who voted for same-sex marriage. And, significantly, the bill was passed in a GOP controlled chamber. The GOP could have easily put a halt to the whole thing by simply refusing to bring the bill to the floor for a vote. The vote happened. A GOP controlled chamber approved gay marriage. And that by itself is a potent symbol and a big reason to celebrate.
