From the "who knew" file...

If you've been a lesbian your entire adult life and then meet an amazing person you want to marry who happens to be a man, you are going to a) cause much ire and consternation among some people who you once considered good friends and amazing people, and b) be the butt of the anger and contempt of said former friends.

For the record: I'm not your lesbian role model, and I never should have been. My life is my life, not your political slogan.

But hey, maybe that's the price you pay to start being eligible for heterosexual privilege.

I was one of the lucky ones. They sent me to a cancer surgeon and I was the 1% who didn't have cancer. That didn't mean that I didn't have massive surgery and follow that up with CAT scans all the time because they wanted to make sure. I only lived with the uncertainty. I can't imagine living with the certainty. So yeah, you play that cancer card, honey, because I find it not a little petty that your friends are raking you over the coals because the someone you want to cuddle with at night has a dick, when you could be cuddling next to an IV drip that's got chemo drugs in it (like another friend on my flist). These are your friends??????????
