- So I was visiting an old high school friend while here in Houston.
- I've been friends with him since we were fourteen. He's straight, and
- he's very gay-friendly. He was very supportive when I was coming out.
-
- So I was at his apartment, with his fiancee, and we were watching The
- Burning Bed. (Groovy movie, btw.) We'd just seen the scene where the
- cop won't help Farrah Faucett press murder charges against her abusive
- husband. And my friend's fiancee, angry at the character, yells at the
- screen "faggot! You should help her, you wimp."
-
- Grumble.
