Yeah. Not sure why, but most of the guys around here have either been in relationships with guys or are right now. I almost had a heart attack when I was still in the closet.
Which I'm not, now. But I came out on my own time and on my own terms. Which, you know. Is fine.
Honestly? I am pretty sure your friend is like in the 10% or less. There's a lot of kids so I don't know which way they'll go when they grow up, but almost all the guys I am friends with? Yeah. Gay.
Gay people can get married now. Adopting kids. Have a whole month when stores sell rainbow shit and talk about how much they support queer people so we give them money.
It's pretty different. Not perfect, but it got better. A whole lot better. AIDS isn't even a death sentence anymore.

If he gets you in a polo, I am taking back all the compliments I ever gave you.

Date: 2023-05-23 01:09 am (UTC)Wait. You need clothes right now because you're both in a room together? Naked and radioactive?
God. You're living my teenage dreams.

no subject
Date: 2023-05-23 01:32 am (UTC)No. Sorry. I'm not uncomfortable or anything, really. He's just not into guys.

no subject
Date: 2023-05-23 02:08 am (UTC)I mean, I did have my own Eddie here for awhile. And that was pretty fucking nice.
But yeah. Everyone else being happy is pretty nice, too. It's nice to see it when you know how it was sometimes back at home.
