Grandpa gets equality tattoo to support gay grandson
By Sam Rigby
An 80-year-old Grandpa has supported his gay grandson by getting an equality tattoo.
Grandpa Frank decided to get the same tattoo as his grandson Joe, after he came out as gay five years ago.
In a video posted to YouTube, Grandpa Frank is seen explaining the reason behind his decision to get the tattoo.
He says: “This is nothing compared to what my grandson went through when he first came out.”
Joe’s boyfriend, Will, explained on YouTube: “About a month ago, Joe got an equal sign tattoo in support of human equality, and Grandpa Frank wanted to show his love and support, too. The world is really blessed to have people like Frank, who not only love unconditionally, but also accept everyone for who they are.”
Five more members of Joe’s family are supposedly planning on getting the same body art to show their support for equality.
