HOMOPHOBIA

GreatMartin @GreatMartin (23670) • Ft. Lauderdale, Florida 18 Apr 16

My friend wrote this in 2006 and said I could print it--sadly so much of it is true. It is long but I am hoping it will start a lively (but polite) discussion here. We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she...

Justin531982 @Justin531982 (71) • United States 29 Dec 09
