hi wrenchergirl,
i am so glad that herschel has "come out of the closet" so to speak.
i have read his book (his story) and it makes sense. of course with any book i take what relates and leave the rest. it was a little redundant and he has a strong religious faith...anything with religion usually gets to me but i thought that he wasn't advocating...just telling about himself...these are just my opinions.
i think he is very brave. he's taking a lot of criticism but handling it well. he says that he's talking about it so that it will help others. i do believe that. it really doesn't make me anxious. it makes me feel proud of him. at first i thought OMG with his story out in the open....people around me are going to figure out about me.....not true though. i'm finding it positive for myself that he has done this.
These are only my opinions. Nothing more.
littlek is one of my littles
Take care,
Ker
