While we recognize this can be a valuable paradigm for many, this panel will discuss some of its implications. For example, what does a heterosexual god-couple imply for same-gender couples? Would feminizing some attributes through a goddess figure impair the development of those traits in men? Does eternal gender (and associated eternal attributes) abrogate hopes for egalitarian institutions? http://sunstonemagazine.com/audio/SL15224.mp3 Marina N. Capella, Christian Anderson, Janice Allred
