Step 1: Intro!

Okay. We need to write the introduction. And the conclusion. And everything else. We need to write. A lot.

But first, more research. The research never ends. Never.

Accoding to http://www.thegyc.com/index2.php?option=com_content&do_pdf=1&id=825, which was written in March 2006, the first onscreen kiss between a same sex couple was televised in the popular British soap opera, coronation street. Interesting.

Now back to the intro! Sheri toys around with an introduction, and Mr.Blauer comes up with the idea of providing a scenario to draw the audience into the essay.

Great! Now we know how to begin.

But what scenario?

Alyssa tells of how her Uncle who was gay was ignored by her Aunt at a family reunion.

Jess comes up with the idea of a little boy being bullied.

Sheri's mind is blank.

We finally come up a situation. We get writing. Alyssa finds cartoons and pictures portraying homosexuality on the internet.

We're well on the way to finishing step one.

Now for step 2, and 3, and 4...and 5.

And even more research!
