Went on a date with a dude and asked him his birthday and he said he’d never tell me because “telling ppl your birthday gives them the chance to establish pre conceived notions about them that aren’t true” I said “damn you’re a Gemini” … today I discovered he’s a Gemini.

I had a great uncle who was gay in the 60s. And he adopted his lover (they were close in age) I know it sounds so weird but it was actually revolutionary. They were able to share the same last name, if anything happened to my uncle or vice versa they were able to make decisions.
