Billy Porter -
Gay life in 1970 was very bleak, compartmentalized. You didn't take it to work. You had to really lead a double life. There were bars, but you sort of snuck in and snuck out. Activism and gay pride simply didn't exist. I don't even think the word 'gay' was in existence.
Larry Kramer -

Larry Kramer

I think I was probably looking for gay role models when I was younger, before I even knew or thought I was gay.

It was an edge.

Ted Olson -

Evan Davis -
The national Log Cabin Republicans are ridiculous. They’re not conservative at all. I don’t even think they’re gay - they’re bi (partisan). GOProud is comprised of real conservatives who happen to be gay. (Same with the Texas LCRs, for whom I’ve been signing books for years.)
Ann Coulter
