If we are each looking for either a boat or a crew position, why does our sexual orientation matter? Perhaps what you are looking for is someone who is accepting of or tolerant toward Gays and Lesbians. Is that what you meant? Or are you looking for an intimate partner of a particular orientation to join you on your boat? Is that more important than sailing or other skills? Either way is of course completely fine but I found your ad confusing and would respectfully suggest that you be clear in what you are seeing--or who you are seeking. Just imagine if the ad read "Heterosexual or white
crew wanted." If a gay or lesbian person wanted good crew, why would that crewperson's orientation matter unless sex and intimacy were part of the deal? I am just asking for clarity. I'm certainly a tolerant and friendly person and I'd be interested in
crewing perhaps, but not necessarily with a "s" in front of it, if you'll pardon my wit. I hope my request seems reasonable.Thank you.
