SHIT I CAN'T MAKE UP: Convo between my 7year-old students today

(Names have been altered slightly, just in case.)
Josie:
I have a new crusshhhhh
Matt:
Me too! On a boy!
Pearl:
You're a boy with a crush on a boy?
Matt:
Yeah he's really cute.
Pearl:
Oh.
(pause for a bit)
Matt:
Boys can like boys. I just can't marry him because boys can't marry boys.
Me:
Yeah they can. You can marry whoever you want.
Matt:
Really?
Josie:
YEAH my tia has a wife so now I have a titi and a auntie.
Matt:
Okay. Then maybe I'll marry him.
Dave:
(from across the room) No you can't you're seven.
(Age was apparently the only foreseeable problem anyone of my elementary schoolers could see with gay marriage. I almost cried out of happiness. Later, when I was asked if boys could kiss anyone they wanted, I replied "only if they want to kiss you back." And Josie responded "Yeah! Your body your life.")
My students are the shit.
