My 41 year old marriage has been recognized for all of 7 years, and is increasingly under attack, as are the rights - and lives- of other minorities. My daughter has had a legal relationship with my spouse for even fewer years.

We don't need any help from our "friends" who hope our marriages will be attacked. It took so long in the first place in part because of "friends" like you who saw my marriage as too divisive until very recently to even be part of the progressive platform.

And now we are the first to be thrown back under the bus.
