Heaven’s to Betsy, South Dakota is allowing boys and girls to dance with one another:
Once upon a time I read somewhere how the dance craze, The Twist, got started. I do not know if the story was ever proved true, but it is worth repeating.
It seems that there was an ordinance in one of Southern California’s beach towns prohibiting same sex partners from dancing with one another in the local gin mills. However, same sex partners tripping the light fantastic had to touch each other in order to be in violation of the law. Homosexuals began to dance The Twist without touching one another just to tweak the noses of the local constabulary who were obviously commanded by Inspector Clouseau. The craze spread as such things have a way of doing, and the twist became part of the culture with a lot of help from Chubby Checker.
My first thoughts about same sex marriage cautioned that it might be just another bit of tweaking the establishment’s nose à la The Twist. If that was the merry community’s intent, they succeeded beyond their wildest dreams thanks to judges.
I doubt if any of them ever thought their inside humor would go as far as it has. Now that they are being taken seriously they have no choice but to run with the Socialists and try to make it stick. I name the Socialists specifically because the same sex marriage issue is so easily turned into a “constitutional Right.” Socialists love the Constitution whenever they see a way to tear it down.
Now that a few states are dispensing marriage licenses look for a constitutional amendment to resurface. Speaking for myself, I do not care one way or the other if there is a constitutional amendment to deal with the issue. I am not suggesting building discrimination into the Constitution as some will claim, but it will trivialize the Constitution to some extent. An amendment specifically designed to address gay nonsense may not be what the light-hearted community expected, but they do have square apples from academe pontificating about same sex marriages as though it is not the silliest damned idea to ever come along. How the merry crowd must be laughing at the straights.
Parenthetically, not many years ago color coordinated gays claimed every creative artist that ever wrote a play, composed an opera, smeared paint on canvas, or chiseled a piece of marble, as one of their own. Michelangelo’s talent was the face they put on homosexuality.
Do not fret. There has been a make over. The new face is less artistic, but infinitely more monogamous than the old face. The latest story is that they all love their chosen partner, work hard at ordinary jobs, never part company, and would not dream of infidelity. All things considered, gays should have stayed with the artistic image.
One final observation: Now that homosexuals admit they are stodgy they will have to relinquish the “gay” misnomer.
The South Dakota High School Athletic Association has decided to suspend a rule that limits competitive dance teams to girls.
The dispute arose over a request by Freddie Linden, a freshman at Dakota Valley High School in North Sioux City, South Dakota, to be part of competitive dancing in the state.
When he was refused, the Pacific Legal Foundation filed a complaint on behalf of the 15-year-old.
Now the PLF has confirmed that the state association is suspending its rule.
