[quote=Anonymous]My now wife, then fiancee, left VA back in 2007 because you could (and can still) be fired for being gay. I was and am a public school teacher and at the time was untenured. I was so, so fearful of being out because I felt I could be fired. We moved to MD in 2007, then to DC in 2008, then back to MD in 2016, and we never looked back. I would not move back to a state where I could be fired for being gay or where I'd be afraid of being out. I would not put my child in the same schools where I grew up - no chance in hell. Right now, in our little MD neighborhood, our child sees kids from all walks of life in his classes, including kids from two dad and two mom families. Having grown up in an extremely rural area, I wouldn't go back. Not a chance.[/quote]
