Reverse Discrimination

I used to live in San Francisco for 7 years. Now, I know what you are thinking, and let me lay your assumptions to rest…I moved out there with a woman, I married that woman, she still is a woman. So let’s just get past that.

San Francisco was a hard place to live because there is still so much discrimination. I remember a Saturday afternoon when my wife and I were walking through the Castro holding hands. I could feel the stares and mean looks and then, from over my shoulder, I hear that familiar, hateful lisp, “Do they have to do that in public? Jesus Christ!”

And, you know, it hurts. You tell yourself you can get used to it, but you just can’t. We straight people have come so far and fought so hard to be considered equals with the gays and yet, this persecution still exists. When will we finally live in a free society
