It's very interesting to see how some people are having trouble accepting how quickly gay rights has caught on in the U.S. I read a letter from a grandmother who was upset about the children's book about 2 gay princes marrying being read to her grandchild in class at school. Somebody responded and politely told her that since gay marriage was now legal in their state, that gay relationships were not something that could be ignored or hidden from children's view. To a certain point I do have some sympathy for people who are more conservative or just from very rural backgrounds. The speed with which homosexuality went from being a taboo subject to being one that is at least tolerated, and legally recognized through marriage, has been very swift. Much faster than I would have anticipated myself. The ones who feel they've been left behind will catch up eventually.
look where this country was 50 years ago with the conservative bigots! I feel zero sympathy for their narrow minded views. Today we have a Intelligent 2 term Black President and my own Seattle has a openly Gay Mayor... As the great Bob Dylan said 50 plus years ago "the times they are a changing"
