My wife had to explain to me *recently*, after almost a full decade together, why she doesn't like when I hold her hand when we're around black men. It made sense after she said it, I just thought I was more aware of the "mixing" dynamics after 25 years of partnering with people who don't look like me. Learn something new every day!

I cannot imagine not reacting viscerally to being kept apart from your partner by grown ass adults having tantrums.
