How very true. It always amazes me when straight critics claim Walt Whitman wasn't gay: There's more than one photograph of him with his younger lover. The sad fact (in reality) is that homosexuality is still frowned upon by most straight folks. Tolerance is not the same as acceptance.
Anyway, this is a thought provoking blog. Thanks for posting...
