If you know a straight person incapable of placing themselves in the shoes of a gay person and is bigoted and/or ignorant because of it, there is a video out there that could help. This workshop takes some heteros through the world of a gay person by flipping the tables and making gay the "norm". It's pretty interesting stuff.
Originally from Brian McNaught's video "Growing Up Gay", the video is worth a peek. This guys seems really good at putting you in an alternate reality, maybe I can hire him for my imaginary date with David Costa.

Wow, powerful video. It should be a standard part of any sensitivity or anti-discrimination training.
I was thinking the SAME thing Michael. This applicable to sexism, racism, “religiousism,” or any other -ism.
This is AWESOME stuff. 🙂
This is brilliant, thanks for bringing this to our attention. What a wonderful blog entry to include on Manhunt’s down day. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’m going to share this with SO many friends, relatives, coworkers, etc.
