I have spent the last few days reading the posts linked here, and I have learned so much about this issue that my brain feels like it will turn to mush any minute now. Personally, as an outsider to this discussion and perhaps not a very welcome addition if I chose to join, I find myself thinking that both sides have points that need to be addressed and discussed. Not by me, I'm not eloquent enough, but by people who understand that there are equal points/merit on both sides.
I'm not taking sides. These issues do need to be addressed and, since I need, primarily, to educate myself on this issue before I take part in any discussions about it, I will remain outside, to read and contemplate and think and ponder the possibilities of joining next time.
(And yeah, my position as a relatively privileged white person gives me the opportunity to do this, I know...)
