      Why are you so concerned whether she calls this woman her wife or her husband? Why are you so jealous! and please you cannot say that you're not jealous otherwise you would not be making these kinds of comment to two ladies that you don't know personally. And what business is it of yours anyway brother she calls a woman her wife or not? Or are you one of those men like I encountered in Portland Oregon last week, that my lesbian girlfriend just hasn't met the right man. I was out with a couple of my lesbian. And we heard it all, and they got me out of there because I swear if one more person would have made a comment about my friend I would have put them on the ground

    MRS. CHANG, your story is one I know many can relate to, and as a queer woman myself, I am so, so proud of you for living your truth out loud! ❤❤❤
    Dear straight people,
    Internalized homophobia is so real, and it exists almost always as the result of fear, shame, and/or trauma. For those of us who identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, etc., questions about our relationships can induce panic among other complicated feelings that are just… not fun to experience. If you want to help the LGBTQIA+ people around you avoid these feelings as much as possible and just feel more safe & comfortable overall, treat us like you would anyone else. Don’t ask prying questions. Don’t preach. Don’t be weird. We’re just like you, even if our relationships look a little different.
    Sincerely,
    Your Friendly Bisexual Texan 💖💙

Humans r accustomed to a husband/wife marriage scenario. It can be confusing-with that concept of understanding-how two people can be wife/wife or hubby/hubby.

    Lol, I think when they ask if you have anything to declare, they mean are you bringing anything back over the border, they aren’t asking for a general statement.
    Agree with you, I do this too sometimes and say partner or spouse, because sometimes it doesn’t feel safe as a women to announce to a stranger that my wife is my wife. But it feels so much better to call her by what she is.

    The first time I ever heard the term “partner” with a same-sex couple was in high school, and to this day I do not understand why same-sex couples don’t just say boyfriend/girlfriend or husband/wife. Obviously for gender non-binary folk, “partner” is probably the term that makes most sense, but still… if you’re married, “spouse” would also be a great option! 🏳️‍🌈❤️

    Whoever commented that probably introduces his wife as "the wife" or "my woman" like they're a pet versus a loving partner... 👀
    (Yes, I get you can say those things jokingly, and I think depending on the circumstance, tone, and audience, it could get a chuckle, but there are a lot of men that say it more as if their wife is an object of ownership.)

    The fact that you have to declare your sexual orientation sucks but you handled it well. I used to call my ex wife my partner and it confused some people. Many asked if we were sisters or even twins which was hilarious back then. I got sick of having to define who she was to me though bc we got married but it was prior to gay marriage being legal so then had to qualify to some that we got married in front of a minister but not legally. We never went back to legalize it bc it would have crushed my disability income checks and I couldn’t afford to be financially dependent on her entirely. It’s so miserable having people make dumb assumptions or having to explain and then feel like I’m over explaining or feel violated that I had to share something that’s private to most strangers. Sometimes I would just say she’s my “friend” and leave it at that. Lol. Unless it’s a border crossing or passport checking/security type of things it’s noones biz unless you feel like sharing. I was always open and out but in our current climate it’s scarier.

    Not to start a fight, but my hetero friends starts bragging about their martial status the second they get married. They introduce their spouses by title proudly everywhere they go. No questions asked.
    But when two queer people get married they suddenly need an explanation to call their spouses their spouses??
    It’s really homophobic and people don’t even realise that when they ask such questions. 😤

    someone told me “you dont need to call him your boyfriend i know his name.” nobody seems to empathize with how freeing it is as a queer person to be in a queer relationship!! so many people have fought and died so my boyfriend and i can be together and i want to brag about our relationship
