    Do…do you not support the person you are married to? What a ludicrous question. Are you or have you ever been in a romantic relationship before? Mutual support is, like, the basic fundamental principle.

    I seriously can’t get over what a strange question that is. Like an alien who has only heard of humanity before.

      What a strange question to ask what he’s done to be mocked for crossdressing?

      I’ve been in relationships before. That doesn’t mean I cosign everything my partner does.

      And, I don’t know, maybe a wild hunch, but maybe they are estranged and married in name only? Maybe she’s taken a wild turn recently? I don’t know their personal life.

      I’m not even defending Byron. He probably is a piece of shit. But he’s not a public person as far as I know and hasn’t done anything wrong that I know of. And no one in this thread has listed a single thing he’s done wrong other than being married to a reprehensible person.

      So I don’t think he’s fair game for mockery at all, and especially not for crossdressing, especially not for things done in private, and especially not by purportedly tollerant people until I hear he’s done something wrong, not just been around someone who has.

      You can feel however you want. My conscience is clear.

        And mine is too. She murdered a dog years ago. This wasn’t a recent issue. She has been a public figure, and reprehensible, for years. And he chooses, every single day, to be married to her. Even if it is in name only, it is still a sign of support for her. He’s a shitty person and not deserving of the respect I give other people, so I’ll mock him as I can, not for being a cross dresser, because cross dressing is NOT something that I view as mockable, but for being a shitty hypocrite. As such, my conscience is clear, and I just woke up from sleeping like a baby.
