Re: Judith On topic/off topic

Yep Judith. At one time drink driving was thought just naughty. Not

anymore. Illegitimacy was once a terible stigma - you were a bastard -

now,no-one gives a toss. Homophobia was once the norm; often now

straight ppl may laugh at someone ashamed to be gay or even get angry

with them for not being true to themselves! Atitudes change, if you

fight for it.

Best,
