Mine, on the other hand, is utterly baffled by all of this, though he tries desperately to understand. He has a tendency to look at me bewilderedly while saying things like, "but I don't think they're supposed to be gay on the show..."!! Subtext, I tell him, subtext, but he just looks more bewildered.
Once we were out with another fannish friend and her husband, and she and I were talking about Ray Kowalski. He (who's a lawyer) overheard a bit and said, "oh, are you talking about Fulbright and Jaworski?" - which is a big NY law firm. We almost fell out of our chairs laughing hysterically.
Still, he's totally accepting and supportive of my proclivities, so I can't complain!!
