Zonker, Mark needs your support.

Or Zonk have the ability to imitate Mark’s mother , or he has a feminine voice .

Or Mark’s mom has gender issues. lol

“Mom” needs a swift kick on his backside. :)

25 years since he came out? I’m really old…

So … Mark doesn’t recognize Zonker’s voice? And wouldn’t recognize his mother’s voice either? What’s wrong with that picture?

I wasn’t expecting Zonker to have problems with it. But that is weird thing about coming out. People you would expect to be upset, can say they accept you. People you thought would be cool about it, can freak out and turn away from you. Most people reacted pretty much as I expected. But there were some that surprised me. And in sitcom fashion there were a couple people that weren’t surprised at all and said they have been pretty much waiting for me to come out. LOL

What dates this strip the most: referring to being gay as a ‘lifestyle’.

Why would Zonker be upset to hear that Mark is gay?

Zonker himself seems to have no sexual urges at all. I don’t recall him ever appearing to have those kinds of feelings for anyone of any gender.
