queens gay class
These awful middle-class queens - which is what the gay movement has become - are so tiresome. It's all Abercrombie & Fitch and strollers.
gay years age
Being gay and being a woman has one big thing in common, which is that we both become invisible after the age of 42. Who wants a gay 50-year-old? No one, let me tell you.
gay actors different
A lot of straight actors are actively searching for gay roles because it is something different to do.
character gay thinking

amount tremendous
There's still a tremendous amount of homophobia in our culture. It's regrettable, it's stupid, it's heartless, and it's immoral, but there it is.
bad beginning opportunity paper seemed tragic weirdest
The weirdest thing about it is it seemed like such a bad opportunity at the beginning, ... Because on the paper it wasn't really a role. It was just a little kind of tragic thing, really.
