We understand that feeling completely. There seems to be times where you just want to stop having to watch everything you say and do and just scream to the world "This is who we are, like it or leave it. "
We have found that we both are becoming more vocal about expressing our views on certain things and really not caring what others think about us. We get tired of having to keep our mouths shut when certain controversial subjects are brought up, especially with vanilla people.
Just this past Friday Ted voiced a view of his at work. Memorial Day weekend is a big gay weekend here on the beach, three days of parting with thousands of gays and lesibans coming in for the weekend. The people that Ted works with were offended that they were coming to their town. He made the comment that they weren't hurting anyone and that everyone has the right to live their life as they see fit. Not a very popular view in this area, but he felt good about voicing his opinion on the subject.
Needless to say, I was proud of him
. We have come to the realization that others don't think that they might be offending us with their opinions, why should we think about offending them with ours?
