Strictly by the #s!
How did you read the above headline?
Strictly by the numbers? Strictly by the pounds? Strictly by the hashtags?
All are correct, of course, but if you are a pre-millennial and the first word that came into your mind was numbers or pounds, let those antiquated terms Tumblr around your tongue. Savor the aroma of your memories, because just as there are only so many bottles of Henri Jayer Echezeaux to go around (that would be one, by the way, for $5,250), the use of # to refer to anything other than a hashtag will soon be as outdated as a flip phone.
Change is inevitable and many of us, let’s face it, don’t like change. To make that evolution more distressing, change now happens faster than ever. Just when you had wrapped your brain around your smartphone’s productivity-enhancing features, along comes an update that takes you back to your cellular stone age. Or, for an example closer to home, just as you were getting comfortable with your G&G winning streak, you open the magazine and find you’ve been dethroned. It happens to the best of us. The gayest and the greatest of us.
Us.
Yes. Let’s look at that a moment.
Take a moment and look. At. Us.
This LGBT family of ours. And what we’ve accomplished together. Marching through the political trenches and facing down every roadblock put in our way, our struggle has taken decades to gain this ground and, strangely, it also seems like it happened overnight.
Gay marriage? No one was betting it would happen this soon. No one. Not even Nate Silver.
Look at the transgender community. There was a time when even this magazine held fiery debates on the subject. Isn’t saying “gay and lesbian” inclusive enough? Sure it is. Unless you’re bisexual or transgender. Now “LGBT” is as common as a hashtag. The rate at which transgender men and women have come in and commanded the spotlight and demanded their due respect is nothing short of amazing.
Guess who’s nominated to be Secretary of the Army? Eric Fanning. A gay man.
A gay man is going to be the Secretary of the Army. Not the stereotypical quippy secretary in an office comedy. The Secretary of the Army.
That’s something to #tweetabout. —Steven Foster
