Poll question: Do you have rights that are denied to a significant number of your fellow citizens?

If so, how fortunate you are.

3. As an adult straight woman,

I have the right to marry any man I want. I long for the day when any two adults in love have the right to marry each other.

5. I can think of 2

Because I live in a Right-To-Carry state and passed the criteria, I can legally carry a firearm which is a right that is denied to the residents of about 20 or so other states...except those states politicians, former police officers and really wealthy residents.

And because I am straight, I won't be denied my right to get married to a woman.

I'm optimistic that in time, everyone will enjoy the same rights I enjoy.
