• which team

  Starting in college, a fair number of my friends have come out and told their friends and family that they are gay (I did a lot of music, theater, and drama, so it has actually been a fairly large number of my friends). It’s always good when someone is comfortable enough in their own skin to tell people who they are, and it usually only takes a brief period before my mind shuffles them into the corresponding pool of people I could set them up with (read: potential terrible blind dates that could happen).

  This has happened enough that I thought that no revelation of sexual orientation could surprise me. Turns out that my mind can still be boggled, but only in reverse — if I have received what I thought was reliable information that someone is gay, and then I later learn that they are straight, it completely blows my mind.
