    At 8:00 when Lily realizes she's rambling a bit and apologized and that Jane immediately turns toward her partner, to look at her directly ignoring the camera entirely was so beautiful. It was a silent show of support that's so gorgeous about their relationship.

      I normally watch a video in it's entirety before jumping down to the comments but I just paused it at 8:13 thinking "I have to see if anyone else is picking up on this too"

      It may also be, partly, that as one gets older, especially into 70s and 80s, eyelids start to droop, making eyes seem smaller. Also, suspect Jane isn’t wearing much liner or other eye makeup.

    Lily is a national treasure! Good to see her with Jane and relating their lives together and my word, 50 years together, collaborating, cohabitating, living through and being a part of what I still call Gay Liberation (inclusive of LGBTQ folks) has been extraordinary. As a gay man of 66 I can appreciate their journey. I hope they continue entertaining us and wish them well.

I'm a 55 yo straight woman who is so glad that I have now seen where all states allow gay marriage. Where we have gay characters on TV and movies . And where we interview gay couples just like straight couples. I know there is still more to do but I'm glad to live in a time where it is so much more accepted on such an open stage.

I wholly believe one is born either gay or straight, but the twins situation does perplex me.
