    This may be one of the most beautiful stories I’ve ever encountered about marriage. Though I am pretty opposed to the institution, I’m touched by this piece precisely because this couple illustrates that the bonds of true friendship and partnership don’t have to come in the form of a heterosexual, nuclear family. Despite all the prejudices and misconceptions working against them, they’ve managed to support and love each other in a more authentic manner than many folks who are in normative relationships. The fact that they’re doing it honestly and openly - well, that just takes my breath away. I only wish I could be so brave myself.
