Thank you, Lisa and Alejandra! And thank you for sharing the Pamela Paul opinion. I've written in thanking her for her well-researched and thoughtful piece.

There are now 1.5K comments to Pamela Paul’s article, and the article is still open to comments. Pamela Paul has replied to one, and her reply is excellent both tone and substance. The comment is from “LGB” who is expressing concern about sexual orientation being grouped together under the rubric of LGBTQ+ (I am unable to cut and paste the comment and reply, but it’s easy to find—just look under NYT Replies.) Many responders to LGB’s comment are hostile, which makes Paul’s sensitivity and willingness to listen all the more important. Paul is definitely modeling here exactly the kind of open conversation we need to have. May it take hold!
