Q&A: SéAD O’CONNOR ON HOW GAYS CHANGED HER LIFE & GETTG HER ‘D*CK HARD’
I grew up Ireland and there was no such thg as “gay” the ’70s. I had never even heard of “gay” except for there was a female impersonator who had a big TV show the ’70s, a guy lled Danny La Rue. I ed to love his show, but I never knew there was any such thg as gay until I was 17.
So I had actually never heard of any such thg as gay until I went to the Hippodrome, and put this way, I was really jealo that I was never gonna look that fuckg good. I actually fd the whole gay muny an enormo spiratn to me bee, J, I’ve never taken the kd of sh gay people take. No, I know, but I suppose a way what I’m tryg to say is that ’s easier to take sh when you are spired by people such as those the gay muny.
