I explained it to her in the most "people are people" way I could think of. But your statement: "one mother blatantly shot me the stink-eye as she sheparded her kids around me" is a little harsh - of course it happens, but in a way, you're making her have to explain a lifestyle to her children that she might not be ready to explain. So at this point my child knows what "gay" is, and while she's asked me what "sex" is, I'm not ready to answer that one. Maybe when you're a parent, you'll understand how frustrating it can be to have to explain things to your children that you're not even ready for. Otherwise, great post.Denahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18311235970709518682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7019205786952575350.post-5546396534782798072009-08-03T12:07:25.193-04:002009-08-03T12:07:25.193-04:00I take offense at your characterization of OHIO as...I take offense at your characterization of OHIO as backward and bigoted. We do not have a corner on prejudice -- it's everywhere -- and we are no better or worse than D.C.!! We have a gay bar, a PFLAG group (I'm a dues paying member) and our congregation even has a gay Rabbi!!
