PREFACE
We are a young, same-sex couple that hopes to enlighten heterosexual and same-sex couples, alike on ways to turn a healthy relationship into a solid marriage. The mission of The Best Workout is Sex
: A Gay Guide to Your Ideal Marriage is to shine a spotlight on love and respect being vital to any union, regardless of gender and sexual orientation. We’re optimistic that sharing the intimate tips and personal learnings that have guided us to our ideal relationship will give you the needed confidence to make your romantic partnership successful.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
This project not only strengthened our bond but also has reinforced our connection with people, organizations, and groups that have pioneered human rights and marriage equality for all. We do not take it lightly that we stand on the shoulders of prolific greatness.
First, we would like to thank every person that sent us their best wishes and extended blessings on our union. It is because of all of you that have optimistically journeyed throughout our lives that we find the courage to live in our own truth.
The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, (GLAAD). Your mission to amplify the voice of the LGBT community through empowering real people to share their stories has been the single most important example to us. Your relentless promotion of understanding as well as the push to increase acceptance within our community has guided us into the individuals that we have aspired to be.
Human Rights Campaign, (HRC). Standing at the forefront of individual state battles for marriage equality is why we were able to legally wed and change our last name to Lopez-Woods. The joining of our last names to create our own family
is truly one of our biggest accomplishments. We will forever be indebted to your dedication for change in the state of New York.
To Dan Savage and Terry Miller. Creating the It Gets Better Project
was truly a moment in history that reshaped the mindset of people around the world. It is because of your efforts that our heterosexual allies also have a dominate voice to pioneer change along with us. Your campaign has instilled hope within young LGBT people while bringing an intense awareness to the difficult growing pains that gay teens face. We all want to grow up, find a person to love, and be happy. Supporters around the world are making the lives of people just like us, a lot brighter. We appreciate all that you do.
To Judge Gerald Lebovitz, you legally made our marriage official. Bless you,
