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

As for hot sauce, I highly suggest Sriracha. It makes everything delicious.

May I suggest Cholula?

Awesome. Congratulations to them.
*wipes tear from eye*
Aw. I hope they get to do this before one of them kicks the bucket.
Best wishes to them. :)
I give it 6 months.
And they better not do a reality show, or it will last 3 months, tops.

Por favor, mantenerse al lado de las puertas.
I really wonder how people can look at them in the first thumbnail and try to deny that their love is any less real than a hetero couple.

Phyllis & Del were pioneers as founders of the Daughters of Bilitis. The couple are a San Francisco institution. Phyllis is also the sister of my late professor's wife. Congratulations and may you have many more happy years together!

Cause your mouth's writing checks that your ass can't cash.
Any 2 people who can put up with each other's shit for 55 years should be given a fucking medal, as well as a marriage certificate.

The story forgets to mention, "On their 2nd date they immediately went to a new franchise in town "U-Haul" and rented a basic 2 bedroom truck for the week-end. From that point on there was no looking back!"""" Congratulations You Hot Mama's!!

I don´t have much faith in everlasting love but I guess there are some exceptions, congratulations to the lovely couple.
What a lovely couple! I'm sooo pleased for them!!

gayelle memaws ROCK!
I heard on cnn about some men in their 50s who are going to be first at their courthouse. one is the guy who actually performs civil unions. I thought that was neat. also neat is there is a little wedding room there so couples can have guests.
They are simply beautiful ... especially inside. I am always amazed that multi-divorced adulterers seems to hate gay relationships which seems to last a long, long time.
You go girls!
P.S. FYI, I'm a San Franciscan through and through. My family settled in San Francisco in 1842!

I didn’t say that it was your fault – I said that I was going to blame you.

Wow, 55 years! I'm happy for them.
HOW BEAUTIFUL THEY LIVED LONG ENOUGH TO SEE EQUALITY FOR ALL.

This reminds my of my (now-deceased) great aunt and her (still living) basically spouse. Milly and Elly. As a child, I just thought they were both my aunts- and they were together since the 50's too. Milly died in the 80's- Elly's still a part of our clan.
