"naw. it's not too serious. it helps foster this "accepted norm".. that if it's not challenged, it can give people who don't fit in that "projected norm" a feeling they don't belong, or worse. (just think if you're a depressed, suicidal gay teenager... anything, even a "for fun" website like this can be that last straw.) we really do need to take these things seriously. there's no reason why just a small change in the interface can include EVERYONE. (and in all honesty, it's a cool idea for a site. it just needs some tweaks.)"

"how... heterosexual normative. i think i would only share on that site if they did something about the options and put some gay/lesbian/queer options on there. (and took off the blue/pink crap. i'm sick of the majority falling back on this "pink for girls.. blue for boys" stereotype... i F'n hate pink. :P )"

a couple points stand out here... 1) AT&T has been working for "several months" on their network... what about the other YEARS that other companies with smart phones have been working on this? (and remember.. the iphone was released on AT&T in 2007. THAT'S OVER TWO YEARS PEOPLE!!) 2) really? "riding the leading edge"? AT&T? REALLY? (see point #1)
