This is a phenomenon that has always baffled me, but Ive never heard it so poignantly and eloquently expressed: After travelling so much and meeting so many people let me tell you there are just as many jerks and sweethearts and democrats and republicans and jocks and queens and every other polarisation that you could possibly think of within the LGBT community as there are within the human race. Aside from the fact that we play with one legal hand tied behind our backs, and once you get past the shared narrative of prejudice and struggle, just being anything other than straight doesnt necessarily mean that we have anything in common... These categories, these binaries, these over-simplified boxes really describe nothing that we see and no one that we know and nothing that we are. What we see are human beings in all their multiplicity. And seeing them makes it harder to deny their humanity. Perfect.
