Would you stay in the city if you have kids?

AS/EH: Nooooo.

Where do you want to go?

EH: Texas.

AS: Home state.

EH: Austin: the only liberal pocket.

EH: What’s weird is that – I haven’t done a lot of research – I know there’s a legal foundation there specifically for gay couples – or is it gay families – it’s gay couples.

AS: Oh, you mean Atticus Circle?

EH: It was started by a straight woman. They do advocacy for gay families. Whenever I see gay families on the street, to me it’s like seeing Bigfoot. I just – I don’t know any. I know a couple.

AS: There’s a lot of lesbians out in the desert raising kids.

EH: But I want to know them. I want to get out there and just – more than just the ad you see on a billboard or in the news. I want to know these people.

When you guys were little and imagined your futures, did you imagine having wives or did you not even think about it?

AS: I don’t know that I thought about it.

EH: I don’t know that I did, either.

AS: I thought about Star Wars.

EH: I think I tried to convince myself that I would, but deep down I probably knew it wasn’t going to happen and if it did, it would be really tortuous. I think that was my intention or psychology behind dating girls was “I can make this work” or trying to see if it was really a possibility, but at the end of the day, it was like, “Nope, it’s not going to happen”. One of my ex-girlfriends, Tara, who I’m still good friends with, she was in town this last weekend and she came up to me and said, “You always knew you were gay, right?” I admitted to her, “Yeah, I kind of did.”

UM, You guys need to take the hand towels over the stove and place them someplace else.

Don't want a fire do you?

At first I thought this was an article about gay brothers. They look related.

Hate to burst their pink bubble, but domestic partnership isn't marriage. Not even close.

That post was full of warm fuzzies. It reminds me that I have the chance of meeting a guy and settling down.

Queerty should have more posts like this. It compliments the biting sarcasm and caustic wit that I've grown to love quite nicely.

What a snoozefest. I bet that you everything in their apartment is in neutral tones.

they are friends of mine. they are genuinely that sweet, that funny, and that GAY. they are painfully lovable. and…the fact that they are so young and in a committed relationship is lovely to me, because i'm young and i married my partner in massachusetts in 2005 and it's nice to feel like we're not alone in going through it all.

I don't think that's a regular old neutral-toned hand towel over the stove, it appears to be a handmade, one-of-a-kind, bright yellow John Deere logo apron with a ruffled hem… and I bet EH looks *HOT* in it. xoxo

This should be forced reading for the ChristiaNazis, so they can see how sinful and hedonistic this lifestyle really is… YAWN…

Ahhhh…Alan in Florida. I would expect such drivel from a tired queen in soFL. The land of serial killer and diabetes. Please don't travel.
