Some time last week

My boyfriend and I are taking an amazing trip to Hong Kong next month.  My BOSS says "oh, are you going with your little friend?  the one who's picture is on your facebook?" 

I said yes.  And he says "You people have it so good.  You have such freedoms.  You can be a gay democrat and all.  So why do you want to get married?  I mean, not you personally, but your people?"  I just don't get it.

Well, I guess there isn't much to comment on that one, or is there?
