The world ended yesterday as the mayor of San Francisco married a lesbian couple in an act of civil disobedience. Del and Phyllis have been together for over 50 years. The decision to challenge marriage laws was taken late Wednesday, the San Francisco Chronicle said, and city workers spent Thursday morning altering official marriage forms to reflect the change.
Oh my gosh! Are they not the cutest old ladies you’ve ever seen? I want to sit under a tree in lawnchairs with them and drink highballs and watch the world go by. I bet they KICK ASS at Bingo. (Sam, I ripped off your pic if that’s alright)
Note to conservative congress assholes: how many of you have been in a committed relationship for 50 years. Yeah, that’s what I thought.
Update: These two ladies are warriors in the women’s movement and GLBT rights movement. I’m even more impressed. They’re not just sweet old ladies. They’ll kick your ass for equal rights.
