Pete Buttigieg is the mayor of South Bend, a magna cum laude Harvard grad, a Rhodes scholar, a Navy Lieutenant, a Joyce aficionado, an Episcopalian, a polyglot, and a former McKinsey consultant.
He’s also gay, which surely matters quite a bit in his own lived experiences. But to voters, what difference should that make? He’s in his 30s and recently married with two dogs. In the post-Obergefell world and one that I think most millennials want to live in, Buttigieg’s personal life should matter as much or as little as anyone else’s.
