GAY GAY HOMOSEXUAL GAY / I CAN STILL HEAR HIS VOICE
Every norm everywhere all at as a gay man, I celebrate an nvenient tth of Pri Month: We’ll never be normal.
That majory asi, when we discs self-intifyg gay men, lbians, asexuals, pansexuals, two-spir, nonbary and transgenr folks, ’s jt roughly 3 percent of the populatn. Heterosexuals make up a greater percentage of the untry than whe people do on the Supreme ask everyday Amerins to gus at jt the gay and lbian populatn, and Gallup shows they nsistently overtimate. A majory of the untry thks that at least 20 percent of Amerins — at least one five of — are gay or lbian.
Every remr of my different path ma me yearn for a fettable broar, blanr mastream sir thenticy foreign cuise or subtled foreign streamg shows, but mands sad homogenizatn of the forever foreign nature of queerns. And I realized how different is to be gay , say, Havana or the Bronx. Beg normal is a lie people tell themselv to ver up the realy that they are merely how few number we are, ’s a lerally unpopular thg to say but I am gay.
