Sorry about all that y’know… faggot and dyke stuff’, and beating you up, and calling you perverts, and disowning you. We were kind of stressed, and in a bad place, and all that.
So… we’re good right?.. No? Well what do you want?
My partner and I would have gotten married almost 23 years ago, but we weren’t allowed (and still aren’t). I think a cool million per year would suffice.
Is this gonna be like the Native Americans thing where if I can claim 1/64th gay I get a card & some benefits?
Because if so I predict a lot of people are suddenly going to be real proud to have a gay ancestor and be part gay themselves.
If every American who claims to be part Cherokee really was, there’d have had to have been more Cherokee than buffalo on the plains of the Old West. Odd that.
Heck, if the goal was to fully socially legitimize gayness (a worthy goal IMO), then something like this might be just the ticket. Gosh knows the hard right seems to have no principle they won’t violate for a bit of money.
If possible I’d like for my 40 acres to include an acre or two of Dupont Circle, an acre or two of Midtown Atlanta, and other bits and pieces of metro areas. I’d be appreciative of 40 acres in the Salt Flats I suppose but like all those Beatles “collector plates” I got as gifts I really wouldn’t know what to do with them.
“Wives for duty, boys for pleasure” goes back to Ancient Greece at least AIUI, and while modern-day homosexuality’s got little in common with pederasty, the principle’s still sound. A lesbian can spread 'em and think about redecorating the ceiling while she’s collecting some sperm, a gay lord can resign himself to having to go through all that disgusting business again with Her Ladyship for the sake of an heir and a spare. Your heart may not be in it, but your reproductive system isn’t too bothered.
Actually I was thinking along the lines of “Well, my uncle who had no kids was gay so I guess that makes me …”. But as others have pointed out already, plenty of gay folks make babies, both in ancient times and in recent.
