[QUOTE="gerhard1, post: 3242361, member: 5391"] Yes; I hold the media largely to blame for this shift in perception. Who else is capable of changing public perception? Smoking for example is now much less acceptable than it was two generations ago. The media got the message out about the dangers of smoking. Guns are another example where the media is trying (but in this case, not succeeding) to change perceptions. You mention civil rights. Had the media portrayed the civil rights movement in a negative fashion, it would not today be the potent force that it is. The same thing is happening with LGBT issues. They are portrayed in a very favorable light with favorable results. Don't underestimate the power of the media. I'm not 'hung up' on the meaning of marriage. I am using the word as it has been used for thousands of years. [/QUOTE]
