Miss Harris-Lacewell:
"In this case, she (Carrie Prejean) feels bad because she's being stigmatized based on an expression of her sexuality, she is being judged because she is part of a group that is generally stereotyped (pageant winners), and she's finding that her morality is being brought into question because of a set of personal choices that she's made".
"It ought to be causing empathy on the part of Miss California for gays and lesbians who are simply trying to live a life of full equality in the Unites States, and are being judged and abused in all of these ways that she is now personally experiencing".

Not awful (as I gave it a 3*) but Prejean is going to evaporate more quickly than ethanol in a red-hot frying pan.
Does anyone really care what a beauty pageant runner-up airhead says?
