[Gay State Conservative]

When I measure myself with men like my father, I find myself wanting in so many ways...

That's exactly what I was thinking about myself.I consider myself to be basically "respectable" (by today's standards,at least) but I could not now...and have never been able to...hold a candle to *either* of my parents.
