The greatest single victory of the gay movement over the past decade has been to shift the debate from behavior to identity, thus forcing opponents into a position where they can be seen as attacking the civil rights of homosexual citizens rather than attacking specific and (as they see it) antisocial behavior.Labels: Dennis Altman, G.L.B.T.

… A woman committed to following the World Health Organisation guidelines must be in almost continuous contact with her child as its exclusive food source for six months. She must then commit extensive time and effort to breast-feeding (or pumping) as a supplement for an-other 18 months or more. (It's worth bearing in mind that WHO guidelines have developing countries particularly in mind, where formula is often prepared in unsanitary conditions, using dirty water, with predictably bad health out-comes for babies.) …Labels: economics, families
[dashes in the original,
I transcribed that from the article "The Mother Load" in The Sydney Morning Herald's Good Weekend magazine of January 28, 2012; the quotation comes from page fourteen.
Fairfax's "Essential Baby" website has an edited extract from that article, which (extract) seems to contain the same text as that in my transcript (except for the dashes, which, in the print edition, occured when a word spanned two lines of text).]

I've just made the following two changes to item 12 of that post:
1. I've replaced the words "their dependent children" with the words "those of their children who are too young to marry" (since the natural law does not ordinarily command a father to maintain those of his children who are old enough to marry).
2. I've put an ellipsis symbol at the end of the quotation from Good Weekend in order to indicate that the paragraph from which the quotation came does not end with the quoted text.
