Men will develop mincing walks, unnatural timidity and feminine emotions...
"Placed beyond the law through position, clever, unscrupulous, contemptuous of decent people, their influence is sinister and profound. No accurate estimate on their number can be determined."
That's a quote from William Hearst's Journal-American newspaper in 1943, explaining the term "Homosexuals" to "normal" people. But I'm sure that Fred Phelps says something similar in his "I hate those fags!" newsletter. The only thing that I can identify with is being contemptuous of others... although mostly it's just rude customers, right-wing hating psychos and R. Kelly. I like decent people. I am decent people.
It made me think of a line from a silly movie I love, "Straight-Jacket"- There's this whole hearing- sorta like the Communist hearings, but it's all over this gay actor. He said something like "the only difference between you and us is that we mean you no harm."
end thought of the day.

I think that may be one of the coolest quotes I've ever heard. I have every intention of passing that along.
And I'm so excited about your Big Move that you'd think it had even something little to do with me. I can't wait to hear all about your new little world.
I'm proud of you, my friend. Many mwahs...
