While I think it is much more acceptable, it also has it's downside.
My wife's female bestfriends know, but they also kind of treat me
like a non-person.
Sometimes they talk like I'm not there, or are indifferent to my presence.
They definitely don't see me as a man. Probably less than a eunuch.
Most of them are taller and are full-figured so I understand that they
feel no attraction or have any use for me.
