"Together Time"
Ed and Gary share a rare moment together at the kitchen table on Saturday
morning, while Kiki is in the bathroom. The
mundane reality of their lives, they say, might surprise even the most
fervent opponents of same-sex marriage. 'I think that in a small way, we
are activists just by living our lives,' says Gary. 'Our family
structure, we're not hiding it from anyone,' says Ed. 'We go out in the
world... (and) we're sort of teaching everyone that yeah, two guys can
raise a little girl and they can do all the same stuff you're doing and
it's normal. There's nothing to be afraid of with this sort of family
structure.' 'To me,' says Gary, 'the message is: look at our boring
lives.'
