Will

Will

She's so stupid. She's so fucking stupid. I'm disgusted. I really am. None of it's valid. Single mothers are in completely different situations. They have nothing to do with gay parents. She's completely biased against women because that's what her religion has told her is right and it's disgusting. She didn't even bother arguing against male gay parents. I'm sure somebody would have brought it up, if she hadn't wasted the entire half hour bashing women raising children together. Kids don't need a man to lead them. Women can be leaders. That's something that she talks about all the time. She's so active, when it comes to women's rights. How could she not trust women to raise children? Her argument is so full of holes and contradictions. She's just trying so hard to find things to backup her shitty views on gay couples. I'm so fucking pissed. She...

She's stupid, I know, you've said. She is so fucking stupid. We're still in the South.We're in fucking Texas. You're in Texas, you can't really expect much.

Will

I'm disappointed. I thought she...

Michael

She's not different. She's nice, but she's not different. She's just as bad. It's disappointing, I know, you've said that. You've said just about everything you can about this and every similar thing to have ever happened before. I know how you feel. I feel the same way, but you have to understand that it just is that way.

Will

It needs to...

Michael

Yeah, it needs to change, I know, Will, we talk about this all the time. You say the same things. I know. I want it as badly as you do. I want it to be normal. I want to talk about love without lying about who I want to love or who I do love, Will. It will change. Maybe not soon, but it will.

Will

We need to leave. I don't want to be here. I can't stand it. I really can't.

Michael

We can't leave yet. In a few more years, we will. We will, Will.

Will

We Michael, Michael.

Michael

Yep, as soon as we can.
