- ----------------------------Original message----------------------------
- Dave Strickler asks if gay and lesbian librarians are welcome in the
- profession?l
- I welcome any professionals and I fail to see any reason why sexual
- preferences make anyone less professional. Unprofessional behavior
- such as forcing one's sexual preferences on an unwilling partner
- makes one unprofessional.
- We need to stand behind those who are unfairly discriminated against
- and I do believe that would mean refusing to hold a professional
- meeting in a state that discriminates on the basis of sexual preference.
