I was thrilled to see them kiss.

They love each other.

Love is what it's all about...

Only a few years ago they not only wouldn't have felt free to do so, but it would have been all anyone talked about (think Janet Jackson's nipple). It really hasn't even been much of a mention in the news. Just "she kissed her wife..." or "greeted her family..."

We regularly see athletes share winning moments with significant others and this should be no different. Great win and a great moment.
