Yes, I have a cousin who has been with his spouse since the 70's. I love them both. They have a beautiful home and adopted 3 children who were siblings and in foster care. Now they are grandparents.
I have known many gay men and women through out the years. Back in the seventies and eighties I used to go to Fire Island where my ex-husband's family kept their boat for the summer. It was pretty much all gay except for the boat or day people. Plus I worked in nursing homes so made many gay friends there. I don't really think of them as any different as anyone else. One of my friends who lives here is gay and he is very outgoing and a happy type of person.
