Brian McNaught has been an author and educator on LGBTQ issues since 1974. Former Congressman Barney Frank said of Brian, “No one has done a better job of chronicling what it’s like to grow up gay."
Ray and I are reviewing films for the local gay film festival. We watch two or three a night, rate them between 1 and 10, and say whether we’d pay to see them. One film we watched recently was “Just Kids,” a documentary on the challenges faced by trans kids and their families.
“Hello. This is Gay Pride month, although I can’t imagine why anyone would be proud to be a homosexual.”
The octagon shapes that moved around like scattered diamonds on the bottom of the pool, had my full attention until my naked husband swam by. Then, Sebastian, our 2-year-old Aussiedoodle, dove in between us. So much beauty.
A scapegoat is a person blamed for the mistake of others. Its source is the Bible.
In the movie “Bent,” a gay man, on his way to a concentration camp, bangs his head against the box car wall saying, “This can’t be happening.”
When I told Ray that I no longer wanted to travel several hours to speak on LGBTQ issues in the workplace, I wondered what might be next. Since then, I’ve written my memoir, and worked in an advisory capacity for two schools in Haiti, and for Human Rights Watch in South Florida.
“Do you know that you make the same look you made when you were little,” Ray asked.
During last night’s walk with Sebastian, two young adult males rode by on bicycles, one yelling to the other, “You’re a f*cking man. Suck it up!”
