Huh. First of all, thanks for reminding me of that book. I have it about somewhere and could use the road map, yes I could!
Second, I'm cis and I agree with you. There isn't a lot of queerness in books/literature/tv shows, especially queerness presented as (what it should be) normal. All I can do to help, myself, is offer that queerness in my own writing and try to be as inclusive as possible.
As for the voting for Santorum thing, I heard the most terrifying thing on the news last night. According to polls, the breakdown of Republican voters here in California is that Romney is the preferred choice of men and that Santorum is the preferred choice of women. I nearly choked to death sitting her on my couch hearing that. WTFuckingHELL?! How can any woman vote for that Dark Ages fuckhead.
