Probably, the nature of homophobia will never be widely interrogated, while we will continue to be excluded from school curricula, subjected to vicious media distortions, or entirely ignored, denied basic civil rights while our demands are ridiculed and derided.

Art is not in the ...eye of the beholder. It's in the soul of the artist.

Instinct is a marvelous thing. It can neither be explained nor ignored.
Agatha ChristieRead
