Human after all
I don't like Dick Cheney, obviously, but it warms my heart to hear that when Mary Cheney came out to her parents, "Dad said he loved her and just wanted her to be happy."

I wish my own parents had been that accepting of me when I was that age. And I wasn't even gay!

maybe I'll give it a try next time I see them. Mom, dad, I'm gay! love me!

On the one hand, in the abstract I think that would be hilarious. On the other, not so much.

Also, this would mean you would have to dress Adrian up as a girl.
DO EET.

my boss was trying to convince me that Adrian was a girl's name anyway (I do know an Adrienne (female), but I know 3 guys named Adrian... sooo...)
Posted by Lady K! : | 2:44 PM
oh, and Adrian's already mostly gay as it is. he'd make a hot girl.
this is totally do-able.

Don't make me say "DO EET" again, young lady.
