A Sanctuary From Intolerance, Guy L. Gerbick
Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
I appreciate Michael Lane's column "Sensitivity U." in the Feb. 12, 1996 edition of the Maine Campus. His points are frequently well researched and written, though I frequently disagree with his interpretations of events. Such is the case with his views on the residence hall Safe Zone for lesbian, gay, bisexual students and their allies. Contrary to his anticipation, I do not consider him a homophobe, I support his freedom to speak his mind. I also think his understanding of the experience of lesbian, gays, and bisexuals and the First Amendment could be better informed.

This week is National Condom Week, so I'd like to focus today's column on condoms, to get you thinking about the issue. Let me start off by saying: Vows of abstinence break far more often than condoms do. Having said that, I would like to point out that the simple truth is that, for sexually active couples, condoms are the best means we have of preventing HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).

Last week's announcement of a new dormitory wing reserved for gays, lesbians, and bisexuals is not particularly interesting. It came as no surprise that the university, concerned more with sensitivity than education, would forge ahead with such a reckless plan. Many would prefer to ignore the issue. However, as a supposed voice of the reactionary social policy, I feel that this decision, indeed the university's stance of anti-discriminatory education, is worthy of comment.
