    Family is who you make it. So many people have families that deprive their siblings, daughters, sons, etc the feeling of being LOVED to be whoever they choose to be. What this Dad is doing is spreading love, joy and happiness to so many. All humans need to be more like him.

    This is a beautiful concept, but I really wish that everyone supported their loved ones who are part of the LGBTQ+ community. 🏳️‍🌈 Love is Love.

      Unfortunately that’s not how it works in many cases. It’s sad, but kudos to all the people that realize everyone needs love!!

    There are lots of heterosexual couples that have no support either for different reasons… parents died, they don’t accept their spouse, they live far away from their families, etc… it’d be nice to have this type of support for them as well.

    Weddings were established to be between a man and women with God's blessing yoking them together as 1, you people cannot be married but you can have civil unions! Stop stealing everything God has established as good and defiling it, like rainbows 🌈
