Lorraine Biros, 68 & Steph Pettey, 61
Germantown, MD and Frederick, MD
Together for 22 years.
“We both came out in the early 1970s. Very risky then, but we both had jobs we knew we wouldn’t lose. Being out means we are fully ourselves with people, which is liberating. And it normalizes what is normal—we are saying take us at face value. We live fully, openly, and enjoy each other. Our lives are filled with love and fun, and what a shame to not share that!”
