I’m all for breaking down gender stereotypes and traditional definitions of relationship dynamics, but the following exchange got me a little trembly.
Friend of a friend who had never met “lesbians” before: So, um, is like one of you “the man”?
My (at the time) girlfriend: Oh, me.
This was a point-blank delivery. No hesitation. No looking at me. No chuckles. No eye rolling. Hooooly crap.
