More Comedy From The CWA

And the hits keep coming from the Concerned Women of America, who've now got their merkins in a knot because the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force bestowed an honor called the "Leather Leadership Award" to Guy Baldwin at last week's Creating Change conference. From the NGLTF's site:

Baldwin is a Los Angeles-based psychotherapist, author and activist on behalf of “erotically uncommon people.” Baldwin may be best known for his monthly essays which appeared in Drummer Magazine and were collected in his 1993 book, Ties That Bind. Baldwin is a former titleholder, having served in 1989 as Mister National Leather Association and also as the 11th International Mr. Leather. In 1987, Baldwin launched the DSM Project to mobilize mental health professionals worldwide to press for changes to the official clinical definitions that had long been used to label leather people, gay and otherwise, as pathological.

The CWA responds:

Slavery Advocate Honored with Support from the DNC

The Democratic National Committee has put its support behind the honoring of Guy Baldwin, a sado-masochism advocate, by the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force. Matt Barber, CWA’s Policy Director for Cultural Issues, and Peter LaBarbera, President of Americans for Truth, condemn this action which occurred during Black History Month.

Don't you love how the CWA pretends they can't parse the difference between sex-slaves and literal slavery? "Slavery Advocate Honored" wins the 2008 Bullshit Headline Award. So far.
