in 2007 my partner and i were holding hands on a bench in a city park and a parent with young kids nearby said it wasn't okay for us to do that because her kids could see us and that was just "messed up" and when we ignored her, she called security on us, who told us we weren't doing anything wrong but it would be better if we just left.
a decade from today, teens pretty much won't have to remember a time that gay marriage wasn't legal. makes my heart sing to see queer teens.
