Gaiman's "Anansi Boys." The main cast is predominantly black, but he leaves that out when describing them. The assumption is that characters in Britain and the US are white unless we're told otherwise. Gaiman turns the assumption around, and only describes the non-black characters' race (as "white"). People don't notice the assumption until it's broken. It's harder to do with a non-obvious trait like homosexuality, but the practice of dispensing with the assumption by refusing to explicitly describe how a character isn't the norm works the same way.
I always thought it obviously violated full-faith and credit, similar to passing a law making it okay for one state not honoring another's driver's licenses. I'm curious though, is their an actual legally admissible argument as to why it might not? (Such as marriage not being covered by full faith and credit?)
Over that provision, there isn't. The issue was always that it's a states' rights issue so the fifty states were the ones being infringed upon, and would have to make the case. As much as conservatives speak of state's rights, I guess for their governors it didn't outweigh the backlash of supporting gay marriage.
The case being made here isn't a states' rights issue, although it could very well come up if it heads to the Supreme Court. The case that that provision violates full faith and credit is extremely solid. I don't see how even the most Scalia-est of Scalia's could deny that.
This is a good point and I wonder how long it'll be before we start seeing gay characters/romance in children's entertainment.
The majority of Disney and Pixar movies contain straight romance, after all.
Weren't the two old women in Coraline lesbians? Or were they supposed to be spinster sisters, or something?
One thing I found incredibly obnoxious in Wall-E was that they took pains to very clearly gender Wall-E and EVA as a boy and girl, even though they were in fact robots and no such thing; the only reason to do this was to fit it in with heteronormative audience expectations.
Why does that matter? You can't relate to a machine unless it has human traits. Some humans happen to be boys who are attracted to girls and vice versa. Heteronormative or not, it seems a bit silly to get upset at the filmmakers for personifying a part of the human experience to make their movie more relatable for the majority of people that would be watching it.

Agreed. Just like in Futurama; it is obvious that Bender is a male-bot or whatever you'd call it and pursues the female versions of himself. If "he" (note the he) was an actual robot with no gender characteristic, "it" would be entirely unrelatable and fail for comedic purposes and just in general, narratively speaking. This isn't new; C-3PO and R2D2 are typically thought of as male, even though R2 really has no gender at all and isn't close to humanoid in form.
This would be the same for Wall-E and EVA. I guess MrMister wanted them both to have female or male personalities and for the producers to make it between two essentially homosexual robots. Or, they should have been incredibly robotic and exhibited no gender traits, which would really have been a stretch for the audience to believe that unemotional, nondescript robots could fall in love, for lack of a better robotic term. Remember, studios exist to make money and Wall-E raked it in. The asexual or homosexual robot movie would not have done well at the box-office at all compared to what it actually grossed.

I think Hollywood also has a huge problem when it comes to Robots. They always feel terrified that the audience won't relate to robots or robotic characters and feel the need to add lots of humans or obviously human traits to the point it may even ruin the greater film. See: Transformers (all of them.)

It's mostly because they overdo such things. Again, see: Transformers. You can make relatable machine characters without having to go the full monty and assigning them genders. The point is that in Wall-E's case though more is the film missed a great opportunity to create a story where you could've had a romance that was entirely gender-ambiguous (to show that love isn't a product of gender but rather reflects a deeper, and stronger emotional bond.) If anything we should be using machine characters to broach subjects like this that are hard to do directly.
X-Men for example was all about racism and discrimination, but because it was done artfully enough it didn't offend the sensibilities of the times. Wall-E could've done that sort of a thing (showing how even genderless machines can love), but sadly it didn't.
If the best you can come up with against someone who's patently ignorant is to yell back at him, "Yeah? Well there's BOOKS, and they say you're WRONG!"
Then honestly you're not coming out of this looking great either.
So according to Twitter, Chick-Fil-A is having one of its better days profit-wise, with stores across the US having lines out the door.
One of my facebook friends announced earlier that if anyone used the Check in feature at a Chik-Fil-A today they'd remove them from their friends list. Some sort of "support chik-fil-a" day thing?

They had human traits. They do not need to have an assigned gender to have those and if you can't relate to something unless you know what metallic bits are installed between it's robo-servos then there's something wrong with you.
I am pretty sure no matter what the cause, a corporation doesnt need a public "appreciation day".

Also, It's not about the customers pocket, its about chik fil a's. If there getting money, they have no reason to change. Like I stated before, a public boycott will only make them more profitable. CFA would be smart to constantly poke at the gay community every 4 months to try and get "grass roots" movements to have "support CFA day", and people in politics PR endorse them (see palin with the bag) for free.

Who said they fell in love? They were good friends from where I was sitting. Doesn't really matter since your last paragraph is 100% unprovable anyway.

They had human traits. They do not need to have an assigned gender to have those and if you can't relate to something unless you know what metallic bits are installed between it's robo-servos then there's something wrong with you.
Also, they just happened to pick male and female. So they're straight. Except really it's not just one case, it happens pretty much every time a robot couple needs gendering. Which isn't very often, I guess, but.. yeah. It's annoying that even when it's totally reasonable to take gender out entirely, it's inevitably told as a story between a boy and a girl.
And I, too, don't require gender to identify with things. And identify with/relate to women and men pretty much because of their situations, not their genders.
(Which is funny when you think about it because neither I nor most people share many of the traits that movie heroes have anyway, yet once the gender gets funny that throws people for a loop. Gender and its roles are just so ingrained into our collective psyche that we fail to function right when it's the slightest bit off.)
It's fucking Disney. Of course they're going to market their movies to the lowest common denominator.
There are fewer people in the world offended by Heterosexual relationships than there are homosexual relationships. This isn't right, but it's the world we live in and the one Disney has to deal with. Believe it or not, they actually are an incredibly homosexual friendly company

It's absolutely about the customers pocket.
People who are for marriage equality simply need to not spend money at CFA. They have many other sources of chicken, and only face any opportunity cost to their boycott if they live very far away from another chicken brand.
People who are AGAINST marriage equality need to spend equal to the amount of money lost at CFA for as long as the boycott continues. They need to actively do something (buy CFA chicken) which is harder than doing nothing (DON'T buy CFA chicken) for 99% of the population.
Assuming the split is 50/50 the success of the boycott will come down to who cares more about the issue multiplied by how much it costs them to care. CFA appreciation day will give CFA a bump, but it won't be a long one. Unless their chicken is phonomenal and it attracts new customers to CFA who hadn't previously eaten there.
For another example, look at Neil Gaiman's "Anansi Boys." The main cast is predominantly black, but he leaves that out when describing them. The assumption is that characters in Britain and the US are white unless we're told otherwise. Gaiman turns the assumption around, and only describes the non-black characters' race (as "white").

Ursula Le Guin and Samuel Delaney also wrote this way at times.
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

This is pretty wrong. If it is part of someone's normal routine/life to stop by CFA and grab some food, then not doing that is actively doing something. As an extreme example, would you call quitting cigarettes "doing nothing"? CFA is cheep, convenient, and/or tasty(as evidenced by the fact that it is earning money); it takes more involvement for an average CFA eater NOT to patron them than it does to patron them.
Add in that in order to have an impact, the boycott has to come from people who at one point actually ate at CFA, and you're on the losing side of the apathy train.
Roger Cates told iReport he had lunch at Chick-fil-A in Owensboro, Kentucky, and planned to return with his family for dinner. Political leaders who have criticized the chain, like the mayors of Boston and Chicago, are hypocritical, he said.
"I think it is ironic that the so-called forces of tolerance and inclusion are calling for the exclusion of Chick-fil-A from cities simply because of the beliefs of their chairman. ... People that disagree with me have a right to their opinion, and I have a right to mine," he said.
Sigh. See, that's the thing about using (or appearing to use) your government position to suppress a business. You give people the argument that this is a free speech thing, and not a suppressing gay people thing.
Does once a week count as regularly? When I worked at Disney World last year CFA offered a buy one get one free deal every thursday to Disney employees. Those days the line to get chicken went out the door as several thousand people got chicken they normally didn't.
If that's the case, sure. Do you really think many people go there regularly?
We got our first CFA out here 6 months ago, there are now 2 in my city.
they are always fucking packed.
I don't know for sure, but i bet they are a strong example of the 80/20 rule. Which means if you get 80% of the people who eat at CFA to stop, you're not really accomplishing much in terms of their pocketbook.

Cigarettes are addictive. CFA chicken is no better than other equivalently priced chicken brands, so people who love Chicken and also love marriage equality can easily procure cheap chicken from Popeyes or KFC. They don't need to give up chicken entirely. CFA is profitable due to producing an acceptable product with strong cost control and marketing efforts. It's not like the product can't be replaced. It's like boycotting BP service stations. It's only a hassle if you don't have alternatives and almost all americans do.
On Chick-Fil-A, I'll just quote my post from the previous thread.
I disagree with CFA's stance on Gay Marriage, but I don't think Boston or Chicago should have right to stop them from doing business in their towns.
Free speech exists for a reason. Let the customers decide that they don't want to give the business to CFA and the locations in those areas won't last long anyway.
