Chelsea said in her caption, “Two of my best friends won Cutest Couple of our senior class. First time in my school history a same sex couple has even been able to run for this category, not to mention winning it. So proud of them, and my school.”
The fact that they won the first time a same sex couple could run speaks volumes about this school. And what did Brad and Dylan have to say about the whole thing?
The cutest couple told The Huffington Post, “This whole thing has been a bit surreal for us because we have been raised to believe that love is love. We never realized that our happiness and openness would inspire so many individuals. The support we have received from our family, friends, and even strangers has led us to believe that our affection for each other is normal … When we started dating a year [ago], the thought of a photo of us traveling throughout the world would be a bit frightening, but now we are proud to be part of the LGBT community.”
This is just so precious. I’m so proud of this school and this couple for not giving a rat’s butt about what anyone thinks and letting people be people regardless of their sexual orientation. These two guys are just the best.
While I wish that these kinds of stories would be so normal by now, we’re not quite there yet. And that really sucks. But I am so happy that there are couples like Brad and Dylan who will hopefully inspire other schools to follow suit. And they’re so right: love is love. That’s it.
Do you love this photo or what? Are same sex couples allowed to run for these superlatives at your school? Tell us in the comments!

The same exact thing happened at my school, 2 senior boys won cutest couple for Best of the Best. I was proud of ym school for coming to a point where everybody could be comfortable with it.
