Quotes About Gay

Growing up gay is still a very isolating and annihilating experience for too many young people. While you are a gay little boy, our society—in its classrooms, its playgrounds, its religious institutions—has no place for you and doesn't want you to exist. You are erased. A gay little boy doesn't know who he can turn to, doesn't know who to trust. He hears people whispering, he watches TV, and he realizes how unsafe the world can be if you don't fit in.
~ Joe Kort

The idea of the gay experience, it feels like a relic. I felt like in the '90s when we were watching the gay characters on 'The Real World,' there was definitely a gay experience that was distinct from a straight experience.
