Pete and Chasten Buttigieg Are a Traditional Wonder
New York Times ^ | 6/18/19 | Frank Bruni

Posted on 06/18/2019 6:44:18 PM PDT by madprof98

Pete and Chasten Buttigieg celebrated their first wedding anniversary on Sunday. You know this if you’re among Pete’s roughly 1.1 million Twitter followers or Chasten’s 340,000, because they traded sweetly effusive missives, as they frequently do.

Pete gushed: “One year ago I married the love of my life. I’m so thankful I found you, Chasten, and can’t wait to spend the rest of our life together.” Chasten posted pictures of the two of them with their arms around each other, which he introduced by writing that he was on his way “to find this cute guy on the trail. Can’t believe it’s been one year.”

Two months ago, when they kissed during the event that marked the formal beginning of Pete’s presidential campaign, one headline called it a “radical moment.” But what has happened since — their daily and sometimes hourly displays of the commitment, respect and brimming sentiment that go into the best romantic partnerships — is more significant and potentially transformative.

They aren’t just the first gay couple at the forefront of a presidential race. They’re the 2020 campaign’s most public love story, one that makes it difficult for even the most resistant Americans to see a same-sex relationship as some frivolous romp, freakish affront or carnal curiosity.

But lately I’ve found myself wondering: What if Chasten were a 29-year-old straight woman instead of a 29-year-old gay man? What would that say about gender and double standards?

They celebrated one year of a pathetic farce. And a lifetime of degeneracy.

Exactly. This all smacks of a political propaganda “marriage” to push the homosexual ideology, as is the notion that they will adopt a child while in the White House. Who knows? They may end up divorced once the political propaganda value of the marriage is exhausted.

The author, Frank Bruni, is himself homosexual. For good measure, he’s also bulemic.

“Traditional”—so does that mean Buttigieg is going to stay barefoot in the kitchen while Chasten works at the office?

Like everything homosexuals do, its a fraud - and imitation and a satire of something else.

Gay guy got married so he’d appear traditional and moral rather than a swinging pervert.

How long will his experiment with monogamy last?
