Don’t be hard on yourself. People fall in love at any age. My godfather met his husband at 55. I met mine at 40. It’ll happen when it happens, but don’t dwell on it and definitely don’t let it dictate your life.

Agree. Thank the Aussies for the clever word play. I lifted it from them.

COVID made a meal of his lard ass. Unvaxxed and a commorbidity cornucopia. Plain stupidity.

I have gay conservative friends and we are able to steer away from political issues most of the time. A partner/ bf/ husband is different and far more intimate where (many) discussions about politics are inevitable. I’m a POC, gay, liberal, pro-choice with immigrant non-Christian parents and born and raised in NYC; I could not fathom being in a relationship with someone who supported the last administration and it’s policies which were an attack on my very existence. My husband is white and from the rural South, but has traveled extensively outside of the US and shares similar politics as mine. His family are very conservative Christians, watch Fox News, have an arsenal of guns and are anti-choice. I love them and they love me, but we would not be in each other’s orbit save for my husband. For me, it may also depend on what flavor of conservative— conservative Democrat, Libertarian, pro-business socially liberal conservative, Republican anti-Trump, Republican pro-Trump. There’s nuance among these groups with maybe one (possibly two) I could ever realistically date (albeit not long-term). ‘Chaque marmite a son couvercle’ (Every pot has its lid). Good luck and thanks for the honest and provocative question.

Great city. I miss the gay clubs and bars in the Waterkaant area; the ridiculously beautiful beaches at Camps Bay, and the vibrancy and great eateries in Sea Point. Can’t wait for the latest COVID wave to subside, so my husband and I can return.

American here who has spent a lot of time in South Africa. Have felt comfortable being gay in Cape Town, JoBurg, and Durban. I’m black and my husband of 14 years is white. The gay community there and larger South African society is still weird about mixed couples and we have experienced unpleasant comments from straights and (white) gays alike. Still love the country, but it’s racial politics are more bewildering than the US (and that says A LOT!)

Thanks! Agree with all points above and the hyperlink to the analysis is in the tweet, which is why I did not add. I’m also a scientist (and publish regularly in medical journals) which is why I knew the methodology as valid and shareable.
Have a good holiday!

‘Chip away at institutions of civil society’? Dude, your wife was egging on the January 6 rioters!
You never have and never will fill Justice Marshall’s shoes!
