“My parents, my family and my friends all love me and accept me for who I am, and even if the public are upset by this, I know the love of those people who mean the most to me will never change. I’m not going on a crusade, but I’m proud of who I am. I feel I have achieved everything I could ever possibly have hoped to achieve out of rugby, and I did it being gay. I want to send a positive message to other gay people that they can do it, too.”
“This means there’s one less barrier for people. When I grew up, there were only a handful of Latino state elected officials and there weren’t any openly gay ones. So I never thought I would be in office.”
“We will not gag ourselves when it comes to gay porn stars, Manhunt profiles, sex clubs, three-way relationships, poppers, or all the other dirty little secrets of gay culture that the khaki-clad HRC clones are afraid ‘the straights’ will find out about and use against us to continue depriving us of our civil rights. Until they can deal with those things, they will only be tolerating us, not accepting us, so it’s better to just get it out in the open now.”
“Holiday Airline Madness! Flight to NY cancelled, mad dash to find seats in full planes. Feel like I’m on the Amazing Race. In the bad way.”
“She (Sarah Palin) is easily as qualified (to be president) as Barack Obama. I would argue she’s more qualified in terms of leadership, experience, management and supervision—actually running something. She was a mayor, head of an energy commission and governor.”
“A dozen or so times this week, wingnut lackeys have attempted to friend me on Facebook, thinking that I won’t just look at their friend list and see their connections to Tony Perkins, Harry Bishop, Matt Barber, etc. Dumbasses. Even though my Facebook page has tons of strangers on it, it’s very rare that I get a request from somebody who doesn’t have at least ten or twenty mutual ‘friends’ with me. I guess they’re trying to catch me saying something on Facebook that they can use against me. Which doesn’t make much sense, I can’t imagine how I can possibly be more insulting or rude there than I am on this here website thingy. I try, I really try. And why are all these nobodies big haired women? Seriously, fuck all of you hags.”
“I’m not gay. I grew up singing and dancing, so people have been calling me gay since fifth grade. I’ve heard everything you could possibly hear about it. But I do love gay people, so I’m not going to act like I was insulted or angry about it.”
