Happy Gay Pride month, kids! I had always hoped to cause my mother bed rest and agitation when I came out. Instead she was about as gelid as Sharon Stones Catherine Tramell from Basic Instinct. No wailing, no requiem, no infarction. A frosty Its not what I wouldve chosen for you, and that was that. Well, I dont remember checking any boxes along the way, but Im glad that GAY chose me. I have been anointed in this life. Its made my journey challenging, but I like to think Im much stronger, more courageous, and more empathic for the effort. As LGBT individuals, we must continue to struggle, not by bowdlerizing our lives, ironing out our unique creases, and making ourselves more palatable to the dominant culture--thats not real liberation--but by committing to be ourselves at all times and in all contexts. And we need to be an example to everyone of the power of love to shift everything that matters.
