[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah- you just can’t win. Say nothing- your silently judging. Say something- you are over generalizing/patronizing. Socializing is impossible these days. Folks have a

Straight when man here.  Just be normal!  Say what you would normally say to anyone.  If a guy mentions his wife, do you say - oh, I know another guy who is married? No, because it’s silly.  I’m straight but I’m also AA so I know what OP is talking about.  It happens less now and I do recognize that the intentions are good, but you don’t have to tell me about your black friend.[/quote]
Yes, making connections IS normal. If someone says they were both in the Midwest, I might mention that I was too. If someone says they love college football- I’ll ask/talk about football. [b]If we have normalized sexual orientation/ then it’s normal.[/b] You can’t have it both ways.[/quote]

So when you meet a married straight person, you say to them, " You're a married straight person? I know another married straight person!" This is literally the opposite of treating same sex couples as normal. [/quote]
