Conservatives, in all their syllogistic aptitude, might be quick to point out that if a student must room with a gay roommate, male and female students should also be forced to room together.

Yale University has coed bathrooms in some dormitories. On campus, Quincy House allows coed rooming groups...

When she was not writing, she was re-creating herself: taking three husbands and countless lovers, both male and female; exploring the Paris demimonde; even, strapped for cash, starting a beauty business at age 58. Such a life--one that has been copiously documented, by Colette and others--presents Judith Thurman, author of Secrets of the Flesh: A Life of Colette (Knopf; 592 pages; $30), with both...
