Glad someone is still taking a stand.

I have to wonder if in the next 20-50 or whatever yrs, that will be the norm and won't even raise an eyebrow.

When I was a singer in a small parish ensemble, the bass was a gay guy married to another man. He would bring his husband with him to socials. It was so in your face that I was mortified that he was allowed to be a minister in the church.

One of the big problems is that choir singing is considered a girl thing. If it weren't for gay singers we wouldn't have men's sections. I'm serious. Perhaps straight male Catholics should seriously consider singing in the choir.
