Va. gym to allow gay parents to join

"ROANOKE, Va. (AP) A Roanoke fitness club has changed its membership policies after a gay man sued after it sold him a family membership, then revoked it after realizing that his family consisted of two dads and a son."

Here is a couple that stood up to the system and changed minds.  Congratulations to them for advancing rights for other gay parents.

    Only when people step forward and raise their voice, changes come. This incident is a glaring example of the fight that is still remaining to be fought. But such a small but significant step will inspire others to protest against the existing laws and amend them.
