But somehow Pittsburgh, USA managed to become much more popular than Manchester, UK, although I suppose some great casting by Showtime USA actually made the difference. I did see the original UK series on video, partially.

But yes, it's uplifting in either version.

The best part about being this uninhibited is sharing the magic with other Americans, watching their eyes light up when they 'get it' and watching them strip off layers of close mindedness and conservatism. Like butterflies emerging from dark cocoons. It's amazing. I'm hoping if there is one thing I teach my children it's to live free and full. Life is too short not to. ** kisses ** Here's to you and me and your honey getting our groove on in the same room someday!! WOOT! What fun we would have!!!!!!!!!!! Peter,

As well they should be. I LOVE to dance. And in P-Town once the guys figured out we were two girls without any agenda and completely accepting of who they were, it was amazing. We danced and sweat right along with them. Of course, we were the ONLY ones with shirts on. ;) For once. HA! <em>[Blog author comment:"This is what I appreciate about you Claudia: you're a gifted writer, a devoted mother, yet the most liberal and uninhibited American I've met online in years ;-) "]</em> Peter, as well they should be love.

I have one of those gay mega dance-clubs around the corner, but the story lines in Queer as folk often made me feel proud too, watching strong gay characters who kept on believing in themselves, proud of who they fundamentally were.
