I visited the Siena College LGB Literature class again a couple weeks ago. Much like last time, we talked a lot more about my family structure, and queer politics in general, than we did about the poetry itself. And like last time, they were much quicker on the uptake than most folks. It was fun, even if I feel like I should have pushed the discussion more literary-ward sometimes. I was also intrigued to have one student pop up and talk about the paper she'd done on polyamory. The times they are a changing.

Note to self, however: Your standard line about how your parents thought you and Becca were too young to get married (21) and "Looking back, I can see their point, even though it worked out well" is not going to make sense to college students. Smart as they are, they don't yet know what they don't know.
