My blog is not about politics.  It is about love and sex and being a parent and figuring out how to do that and not lose yourself or go crazy in the process.  That is also what California Prop 8 is about. 

Same-sex marriage became legal in California this last June.  Living in a place where any couple who loves each other can be legally married made me feel proud to be a Californian and an American.  Proposition 8 threatens to amend our State Constitution to eliminate the right of same-sex couples to marry. 

“Who would vote for that?!” I thought.  And then they began to appear.  Remember in August I wrote that ants slowly appeared in my kitchen, and then one morning I woke up and they were everywhere?  On my kitchen counter, in my shoes, in my refrigerator and freezer, swarming, annoying, infuriating?  That is what those people on the street corners of my neighborhood, holding “Yes on Prop 8” signs are like.  They are everywhere.  And they want our food, our piece of mind, our sense of ourselves, our confidence in our families, and our right to love. 

If you live in California, please VOTE NO ON PROP 8.

If you do not live in California, call someone you know here and urge him or her to vote no on Prop 8.

You may know me as the Horny Housewife or as the Real Woman,  but if you know me you know I know love.  Please consider my advice:

Vote for love. 

Vote no on Prop 8.
