I was standing in line this afternoon for a chicken sandwich with my friend Elizabeth and behind me stood a few juniors who happen to be talking about same-sex couples. A girl, wearing glasses, said to her two male friends, "I wish there were more openly gay couples."
As she said that, I thought, "Yeah, so they can be harassed and be called 'fags' in the halls." I mean, we do live in Texas, probably the most conservative state in the Union. Anyway...
