Black and white Quote by Kehinde Wiley

“My sexuality is not black and white. I'm a gay man who has occasionally drifted. I am not bi. I've had perfectly pleasant romances with women, but they weren't sustainable. My passion wasn't there. I would always be looking at guys.” quote by Kehinde Wiley — Download Open image
