ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR NOT!

Both my husband and I are gay. Being perceived as a straight couple can be endlessly entertaining. The running joke in our house is that we're under cover spies infiltrating the het world. These are situations that amuse us and dilemmas that we can't help but laugh at.


 My family likes me again! They have no idea what precipitated the change in me and don't care. Their just glad I got over that "lesbian stage" and  found a man.

 My grandmother who is clueless tells me she's glad that I stopped hanging around with that woman. She was afraid that some of her tendencies would rub off on me. When in fact that woman was my ex-lover and anything of hers that could possibly rubbed off on me did long ago.

We're on our way out to dinner with het friends when the car's engine starts to smoke, he says it's the tranny fluid again. J.J. and I both start to laugh when I lean over and whisper, "J.J. what did you do?" Two pairs of confused eyes stare back at us.

Phone calls from friends I haven't seen lately begin with... so and so just told me you married a man!!!

A friend complains to me " It took me two years to be able to tell people my best friend is a lesbian and now you go and do this!"

J.J. is cruising some really cute guy. I haven't noticed what's going on so I walk right up, put my arm around him and give him a big kiss. Kind of kills that right there.

It's Saturday night by some minor miracle we have a babysitter, where should we go? A straight bar? Over my dead body! The dyke bar? One of the boy bars? Either way one of us feels like  traitors or tourists. If you can't laugh at the predicament you run the risk of becoming very depressed, very fast.

He thinks it's cute when I flirt with girls.

A few months after we started dating my mother found it necessary to make sure we were using some kind of birth control.

I hope at  least one of my stories made you laugh. If you have any similar stories e-mail me and I'll add them to my sight.
