OK...no one will believe this coming from me but I have an old aunt aged 80 here in real Dixie (anything below or west of TN river in the South)

she has been in a lesbican relationship with same woman since the 50s....I kid you not

they are blue haired and knit macrame and make blankets for my kids and whatnot and are very socially conservative and quiet

they live with another ancient aunt of mine who is 85 and still cuts the grass down there in the summer with a push mower in the sun

i always knew it was different as a boy but was around 11 or so before I figgered it out

I and my 5 kids are about all they have left and we see them whenever we can but they are 6 hours away from Music City.

I love them and am ambivalent about their lifestyle but they have never been anything but warm to me and are not manhaters at all like many loud Timberland wearing types nor are they real dykey...but they are a hair masculine

very odd....most of the women in my mom's family were very pretty and tough....piney woods-red clay gals

i think the dad of these was mean, physically abusive and drunk...and one of the lesbicans has had polio since late 40s so who knows

anyhow....that's my story

I am not real open to male homosexuality but we did care for a dying AIDs man here who had no one to turn to

with men....it's just too neurotic and drama and self obsession

with women...some are so manlike or they are seeking refuge...

who knows....i can see queerness in a young boy pretty early...late toddler...they act all femme

born with or conditioned?

i can't say though I know some here swear they know

So, they never asked for your approval or made a big deal about it. No problem. You didn’t have to say you agreed with that lifestyle, but you treated them like you would a relative.

I know that you didn't do it for the praise but, in my estimation, you are much to be admired for that act of charity.

I certainly don't know.But it doesn't matter.When one has immoral urges (regardless of their nature...or cause) one *resists* them.Only those who are utterly amoral boast of them as the two whores in this story do.

I believe you. They are family, and you love them. Too, you and your wife are very big hearted people. Given that, it’s not hard to understand your “story”.
