GAY? FINE BY ME.

I'm a supporter of gay rights. And not a closet supporter either. From the time I was a kid, I have never been able to understand attacks upon the gay community. There are so many qualities that make up a human being... by the time I get through with all the things that I really admire about people, what they do with their private parts is probably so low on the list that it is irrelevant. ~Paul Newman
Homophobia is a social disease.
One should no more deplore homosexuality than left-handedness. ~Towards a Quaker View of Sex, 1964
Straight Americans need... an education of the heart and soul. They must understand - to begin with - how it can feel to spend years denying your own deepest truths, to sit silently through classes, meals, and church services while people you love toss off remarks that brutalize your soul. ~Bruce Bawer, The Advocate, 28 April 1998
As long as society is anti-gay, then it will seem like being gay is anti-social. ~Joseph Francis
