Though not gay I feel the joy and anticipation of the freedom another human being is about to feel; a freedom of not having to hide who one is to appease others sensitivities based on arcane beliefs.
Gays still have a lot more to fight for to gain full equality. Just as the military was instrumental in moving the country forward on integration, the military may do the same to finally push the bar subliminally in making real gay marriage a possibility nationwide. Only then, when gay couples can enjoy the same tax rights, enjoy the same financial rights, enjoy the same cohabitation rights, and enjoy the same adoption rights of heterosexual couples will complete victory be declared.
The country can only solve all of its racial, ethnic, and other problems with prejudice at the social level when codified prejudice in this country ends for all.
