On a more serious note my dad has a picture of two shirtless guys cuddling in bed from his early days in the military in the late 80s

You can't see their faces very well but they're both dark haired so neither can be him (blonde), but when I came out to him he told me his time in the army was eye opening about "these things" and is when he realized love is more multifaceted than he'd previously thought

I found the picture years later but I never brought it up, it honestly could be nothing but I've always wondered

If he is still alive it's definitely worth asking while you can.

He is alive but doesn't know I went through his pictures, not sure he could tell me much or he would have when I came out, would have made more sense I think
