Caitlin Moran: Eh?

Caitlin Moran - who's usually interesting and entertaining - has written a piece for The Times today about The Gays and equality and that.
Two slight problems.

1. It's behind the Murdoch paywall, so you probably can't read it.

2. I'm not really sure what she's trying to say.

Anyone?

Edit/update: This became quite a thing on Twitter and on the blogosphere, mainly because of this opening paragraph;

"When I first started being serious about being a bleeding heart pinko liberal lefty right-on lover of women, gays, disableds, mentals, the working class, transsexuals and all the ethnics – apart from the Chinese, obviously. It’s difficult to trust them. They’re a cruel race. Or is that supposed to be the Japanese? I can never remember – I did it because it seemed to be the right thing. The polite thing. The noble thing."

Her use of words like "gays" and "mentals" is clearly ironic - and if you can't see that you're stupid.

Apologies to any members of the stupid community I may have offended.

Others found the whole thing rather patronising and/or offensive.

I just found it rather garbled and a lame, wet liberal non-argument more suited to a school debating society. 

It does seem like Moran must have dashed this one off in a hurry, but it's good to know even she can have her off-days.
