I hope that this is a misperception (is there such a word) on my part
but, does this discussion seem to be leading to the conclusion
that somehow gays have some inherent enhanced ability to excel in music,
and the arts and all that cultural stuff.  Is it possible that people
are saying that because gays don't have the overhead of heterosexual
relationships that have more time to be poets, and painters, and writers
etc.  I don't know for sure if this is what's being said, but if it is
thne in somebody's immortal words I say POPPYCOCK.  Since when does
anybody (read that ANYBODY) have the market cornered on all this good
stuff.  I don't know for sure wether or not gays provide any extra
value to family units by being able to care for siblings rather than
having their own families.  It seems to me that any person who chooses
not to have a family (or for medical reasons cannot have one) can
fulfill this role regardless of their sp (sexual persuasion).

To say that any of the things that have or have not been attributed to
gays makes them more or less creative is ridiculous.  I'm sure that
there have been really busy people who have found the time to be
creative etc.
