    Lmao. I’m not an expert on either docking or sounding, so if one comes along I’ll defer. Lol. But also, I doubt you’re the only kid who thought that. When I was much, much younger than 14 and learned about gay folk (before realizing I myself was gay folk) I didn’t understand the issue, because I didn’t realize sex played into it. I just thought a relationship/marriage was two people raising kids and makings dinner and shit. Lol. Didn’t understand why you’d go to hell for that being two men or whatever.

      Kids understand things on a very basic level, which sometimes allows them to see through the societal bullshit that complicates life. Sure you were wrong about sex, but overall you were right.

        Talk to people in their mid-50s and a lot of happy marriages have a fairly minimal sexual component.
