A Gayelle Love Story
Phyllis Lyon, 84, and Del Martin, 87, plan to be among the first gay and gayelle couples to be legally married in San Francisco, CA at 5pm today. They have waited 55 years. Damn! 55 years of the same coochie? It must be true love.
When they first fell in love, they were fired from their jobs, risked being arrested and sent to electroshock therapy. They founded a social club for gayelles in San Francisco in 1955.
This will be their second time down the aisle. They married in 2004 when the mayor of San Francisco started issuing marriage licenses to gay couples. The wedding picture of them holding each other was soon seen worldwide. The Supreme Court eventually voided all the licenses and killed the fun.
The clerk's office plans to stay open late today, so Phyllis and Del might not be the first gayelle couple married in the city. They don't seem to mind. Phyllis told AP, "We get along well. And we love each other."
Congrats to these two hot gayelle memaws! At least they know what they're getting into on their sexy wedding night. I still can't believe they've been together 55 years! I hope they put some hot sauce on the chocha from time to time to keep it spicy!
Thanks Dalia & Cheni Ali

Funny that people like Bossy state that they "disagree" with gay marriage.
And her name's Bossy? Hmmm, imagine that
Much happiness to them!
Congratulations to California for being so progressive. Let's hope the other 49 states take notice.

Good for them.
Awwwww! Congratulations to Phyllis and Del!
Thanks, Murph! It's just something we all have to get through on this path. Good luck to you, as well. Enjoy school... believe it or not those 3 years fly by fast.
Anyway, enough of my off-topic convo... I better start being productive :-)
Take care, Miz, and don't work too hard.

What would 2 80 something year old women need to register for? They have been together for 55 friggen years, I'm sure they have everything they need.
You never know, maybe there is a stunning set of napkin rings that have caught their eyes... or perhaps they have always secretly wished for a fancier toaster. Besides, maybe they are practical and just want a Target gift card so they can buy Depends and Metamucil.
Don't blame me! I voted for Michael Cera!!!!
M.E.,
It would be pretty hot if they registered at Black Label Adult Toys and Frederick's of Hollywood. And don't forget the strippers for the bachelorette party.
Linz: new job, Dlisted BLOCKED big time.
It's for the better: things were really hairy here and I am doing well without it.
Re: topic - People should wake the hell up and realize that life is sooo short and difficult for the most part - who CARES whom they love?
Madame S: ditto.
It makes me uncomfortable to know that some people are so consumed with worrying other peoples' sexual preferences. Creepy, really.
Linzee:
Don't know you and totally OT but good luck with the bar! My heart goes out to you.
Signed,

Miz: doing o.k. considering I'm studying for the bar exam. Now THAT's the pits...
Haven't seen you around here lately. Busy with life?
And yes, the "struggle" over gay rights is a moot point to me. We as a society have evolved past the point of passing laws in direct response to irrational fear, prejudice, and hatred.
OK,
That pic of them snuggling and the emotional people in the background made me a bit misty eyed. Wonder where they are registered? I want to "bless" them with the "wonderful" wedding gifts us heteros have been "enjoying" for years!!!
(Read: gravy boats, ugly glasses from Pier 1 when Murph didn't even register there, salad spinner, popcorn bowl...)
Murph totally approves and wishes them lick! (typo but keeping)
Don't blame me! I voted for Michael Cera!!!!
Linzee,
I'm with you. I actually can't even get my head around what the argument is.
Hi Linzee!! *muah* How've you been?
And I agree with you: everyone has the right to love whom they wish as long as they are both consenting adults.
HI, MIZ!!!!
Hugs!!! How are you??
Wowsers! I envy these ladies. I want to last this much and more with my other half too. Tho I'm not gay, but who cares. Yay for them.

Ummm... on what possible basis???
That somebody out there is possible enjoying a mutually consenting intimate adult relationship with their loved one?
Not much to debate.
Congrats to this couple and cheers to another big step in the final frontier of the Civil Rights Movement!
55 years is a hella long time. Good for them, I wish them all the best.
Aw, so adorable. I love elderly couples. I constantly encourage my parents to hold hands during their walks. Moments like that warm my cold black heart.
congrats!

They make such a lovely couple! They make me wanna adopt them, squeeze them and name them Laverne & Shirley... Shit! Just when I was writing about how shallow and miserable human race is, this news comes along. I'm glad to be proven wrong though.

Bossy - you are entitled to your opinion, (hopefully) nobody will give you shit for that, as long as you present it with respect for other opinions. It could get boring if we all just sat around and circle-jerked each other, all having the same ideas and morals. Have at it.
Dee Dee... hi you whore! I took care of my problem and am footloose and fancy free!

PS - hey "Bossy," thank you for keeping your little thoughts to yourself. Most appreciated. It's too nice a day to get into a fight with the feebleminded.
I'm not feeble minded. I stated my opinion (a right which I have as much as everyone else here) and I stated it respectfully. Likewise I read all of your opinions and accepted them respectfully, wish you could do the same with mine rather than throw out a name simply because I don't think like you.

Mazel Tov, ladies!
(I'm not Jewish, but "mazel tov" just fits the occasion.)
What should their celebrity couple name be? PhyDel maybe. They definitely seem to know about fidelity, cute mamas.
if a gay guy is a "mo" maybe these two are "monas"? married monas? :)
I think they are lovely..
that's all...
Oh..and I wish them well

Finally. About Fecking Time! (PS - congrats to Phyllis and Del, here's to many many more years together!)
Hmm, everyone's adding some pretty supportive and nice comments.
I'm going to have to disagree and leave it at that because I don't really want to get into a b*tch brawl, which seems inevitable with this issue. Suffice it to say that my opinion greatly differs from the majority here.
