Proud Gay Man, Proud Black Lover

I am a proud gay man. I am a proud gay man who is in love with another proud gay man. I am a proud white man. I am a proud white man who is in love and in a relationship with a proud black man. It's just who I am. It's just who we are. Individuals, yet together. Two men, in love with each other. Proud of ourselves as men. Proud of us as a gay couple in love. Proud of our respective races. Proud of our union as a black man and a white man.

We're both proud of what we have together. We're proud of what we've built together over the past three years. We're proud of what we share together now. We're proud and hopeful of our shared dreams for the future. As a black man and white man in love, we're proud of our individual past selves and we're proud of our current lives together as one.

Our life journeys before we met weren't always easy or simple. There were good times and there were times that were not so good. The lessons we separately learned made each one of us proud and strong. These same lessons also taught us individually that there was an important element missing from our lives. That absent aspect was the love and support of another man. A friend. A lover. A partner. A soulmate. A companion in good times and bad.

One day, by chance, we met. We walked together. We talked together. We started to hang out together and we became friends. We took a day trip together to a naturist/nudist beach. We arrived there as friends but when we left, we both felt that spark that let us both know that what we really wanted from each other was more than just friendship.

Our life journey together as a proud gay biracial couple isn't always easy or simple. There are good times and there are times that are not so good. There are those who hate us because he is black and I am white. There are those who are disgusted by us because we're both gay. Then there are those who dislike us because we're both nudists. There are others who despise us due to the combination of the three reasons listed above. Of course, there are some who are jealous of us, a biracial couple, solely because we are in love and as a biracial couple we are happy.

Our life journey together as a proud gay biracial couple is made easier on account of our pride. Individually, we are confident of ourselves as a gay man, as a nudist and as a member of our own race and heritage. Together, based on our respective confidence, we take pride in what we are, what we have and what we share. Our personal pride becomes the foundation of our union with one another: the "me" becoming the "we," the "us." Our collective pride is what makes the two of us into our one, a proud gay biracial couple.

June is Gay Pride Month! Happy Pride Month! Be proud!

Respectfully,
Black Lover Naked
