Now, Dan, you know well and good anyone over the age of 30 is considered an elder. At least in SoCal. :-p

When I moved here, I was 25 and guys were calling me “Daddy.” True story.

"I was 25 and guys were calling me 'Daddy'."

I love you.

We're all just little boys wired for "Dad's" love, respect and acceptance.

I'm so lucky to have had the best Dad in human history. He passed in 2019.

Amen.

You are indeed a lucky man, Jimmy. I lost my dad early. Often wonder what he would have thought of all this stuff. My condolences on your loss. Love and light!

And especially because Dad Bill stepped into the role after my biological father Jim was killed six months before I was born...

In 1984 when my sexuality was addressed by my parents, my mother turned away from me. Dad Bill Boy never wavered and said, "This doesn't change the fact that you are my son. I love you. Your mother loves you, but she is going to have a very difficult time with this."

I love you, Dad.
