Role Reversal
You know, it just hit me that Lady K could have turned out to be completely out of her head with ideas that I could not tolerate. What if after marrying her, I discovered her worldview, life philosophy, etc., was not aligned with my own? You know, like, what if she became a Tea Partier or something? And I imagine she felt she was taking a risk with me, but I turned out to be alright. We're not exactly the same, but there's no real fundamental differences in our opinions. I just want her to have a platform to speak her mind, and for me to listen and respond, and have our conversations flower and veer and go all sorts of places. But in harmony. We hardly ever battle when we talk. It's often a lot of "yeah, me too." Which I really love. And even if not, I think we both feel safe in our conversations together. Sometimes, it's just too mind boggling to imagine how lucky I really am. I'm not alone and neither is she. And we were able to find each other.
She would make a good me, in my alt-gender biopic.
