in my general zoology class, the professor was explaining busted retinas and how they can detach from the eyeball. his last remark was about how they are incredibly painful as his husband had one a few years ago. bruh what?! husband?!? the class got kind of quiet, and a gay guy at the beginning of the classroom looked around in shock. mind you, i’ve had this professor before and he has never mentioned anything about his husband. it was funny because he didn’t skip a beat after he said that, it was so casual.
although there is a time and place for expressing sexuality, i’m glad i live in a time when it’s accepted to be who you are.
