" Because they&amp;#039;re gay, which, according to my Little Explorers Picture Dictionary, is synonymous with &amp;quot;happy.&amp;quot; The reason why come the Gays get along so well, and I base this solely on the ten hours I spent with Rip Taylor in Las Vegas, is that they have a strong gay outlook that compels them beyond the sexual barriers of the Straights. &amp;quot;Part of it has to do with being of the same sex,&amp;quot; suspects Rik Isensee, couples therapist to the Gays. &amp;quot;Being able to realize that you had a similar experience yourself... something to do with, we&amp;#039;re all kind of in the same boat, in a sense,&amp;quot; which is a theme that I distinctly recall from Das Boot. Whether it&amp;#039;s their diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids or their 10 percent larger brains, the Gays have developed a peaceful society of brotherly love that the Straights seem intent on ruining with their backyard wrestling and generally grim attitudes. It&amp;#039;s a shame. The Gays have much to teach us: From wiring a house to housebreaking a Weimaraner, from an appreciation of craftwork to an appreciation of Kraftwerk, the Gays do it and do it gaily. To me, a Gay is like a white-throated sparrow that can feather his nest and get the worm. Now why aren&amp;#039;t we all more like those queer old birds? Got a sex question of your own?
