I think of all the women in my past, no longer with me, who helped inform the decisions I have made during my life as a Queer man. Grandmother, mother, aunts, cousins, friends, neighbors, military associates, teachers, and more. They did not live to see a woman President of the United States elected to the White House. It was a dream for most of them, unfulfilled. And so when I soon cast my vote for Kamala Harris, I will be voting on behalf of all these wonderful ladies who are not here to vote themselves.
When I hear or read that there are Americans today who support this racist, convicted felon, draft-dodging homophobe and wannabe dictator, I am appalled. And beyond that, I question how anyone, woman or man alike, could vote for a sexual abuser who is on film saying "You just grab them by the P***Y". A slap in the face to all the women I cared about then, and those I care about now.
We MUST defeat this MAGA thug. VOTE FOR DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES AND CAUSES !!
Non sibi sed patriae
