Just having a nose on FB and someone I went to school with has posted pictures of her Dad's recent wedding day, where she was a bridesmaid.
I was flicking through them and thinking "there's lots of pictures of him and the best man". But.... it turns out that was the person he was MARRYING!!

I just don't get it.

He's obviously done a great job as a dad for his daughter to be so happy for him.

I imagine when he got mArried 30 years ago being openly gay wasn't quite as accepted and the pressure to get married and raise a family could have been immense.

MrsC, that's my thoughts. Although I was absolutely gobsmacked looking at the pictures, I do kind of think 'ah well, let them get on with it'.
My main horror is that his own daughter was a bridesmaid!

Obviously I wouldn't want for anyone to be unhappy, or with the wrong person, but it's certainly not something I'd be 'ok' with, if it were my own Dad.

Yeah, ok, I guess you are right.
I thought I was pretty open minded, but obviously not. I just couldn't accept it.
Whilst it may be at first unsettling, I admire you friend for not disowning her Dad, he obviously brought her up well and level headed.
I'm quite an open minded person. My mum married a tranvestite.

Hmm. EB, maybe that's it then. I haven't really been subjected to anything even remotely like this.
My best friend is gay, but that's about it.

Haha. Ah, if only I hadn't picked Evian as best answer.... :P

I know, right? He looks SO over the top. I bet his voice has changed too....
You can swap me for Triggs. It's not like ill cry myself to sleep or anything. Not at all.... ;)

I was worried we'd have another flouncer on our hands... :P

Not today, that would require effort I just can't be arsed to put in.
Question Author
Oh dear. Not another one of 'those' days? :-(
Why DO mens voices change when they come out as gay?
Question Author
Lol. I have no idea, but they do don't they.

They do and I can't understand why. One of my family is a lesbian and her voice has never changed - weird!!
Question Author
No but I bet she now wears checked shirts and 'comfy' shoes :P
You couldn't be further from the truth lol
Question Author
Just looking through his wedding pictures (yes, I am that bored) and I just cannot see how he's managed to hide being gay for all those years. Well, unless he's just recently had some massive Gok Wan makeover!

Bleached blond hair, orange tan, white suits. Oh, and his Facebook 'likes' have all recently been changed to Take That, Olly Murs, Will Young, Peter Andre... lol
He's really going for it!
Question Author
Damn! That's totally ruined my preconception of lesbians :P
