Because I don't like when a man says the word my husband.
It's like my unicycle.
I met a woman at a book signing once, and she used the phrase my son-in-law's unicycle, right?
And I thought, oh, that must pain you every time you have to say my son-in-law's unicycle.
And I wanted gay people...
To get the right to marry.
And then I wanted not a one of us to do it.
I thought that would have been perfect.
Like to say, we just wanted the right.
We don't, we spit on your marriage.
We just wanted the right to do it.
Did you and your sisters make a childhood pact to never get married?
Is that how this all started?
I made my sisters sign a contract that I drew up.
I drew up contracts all the time when I was a kid.
Like what kinds?
Like a contract, like one time I bought, my sisters Amy and Tiffany had a much bigger bedroom than I did at the time.
And it was quieter.
