(A campaign ad about the 2008 elections comes up while we have dinner.)
Me: I wonder if Clinton will win.
Cali: No way! She can't win!
Suzie and I: Why not?
Cali: Because no one will vote for a woman.
Me: Wow, did you really just say that?
Cali: I mean, most people who vote are guys. And guys will not vote for a woman because she's just going to turn the white house pink and plant flowers everywhere. If I was president I'd just nuke any country that wants to fight.
(Tony giggles while murmuring in agreement.)
Me: And that's why you're not president.
Suzie: (speaking to Cali) Honey, not every woman would do stupid things like that.
Cali: Yes, they will.
Me: Would.
Cali: What?
Suzie: She's correcting your grammar.
Me: You can't generalize like that. That's ridiculous to say that EVERY woman would be a crappy president.
Cali: It's true though. It's true.
Me: Oh my gosh! (To Suzie) How can you date this PERSON?!
Cali: Psh...Tina, one day you'll fall in love with a guy and he'll think the same thing as me.
Suzie: Honey...Tina is going to date someone really smart who'll believe in equality and all that jazz.
Cali: Yeah whatever.
Me: (Thinking to myself.) Thank God I'm gay.
