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 would add that the character who married a man also therefore started hanging around with insensitive straight people--most encounters between the lesbians and straight people on the show are painful. If you watch the show you have to be prepared for many ridiculous things.

And I'll tell Mr. Blossom right away that we only have a week left. It was fun while it lasted. ;)
