“Gays are not liberated yet. Their struggle is just beginning…” quote by Liz Smith — Download Open image

“Gays are not liberated yet. Their struggle is just beginning in an American culture that is still essentially fearful about homosexuality. But some mothers of gays now march proudly in Gay Liberation paradestheir children are just as precious to them as the children being defended by anti-gay forces. No matter how anyone feels on this explosive subject, mothers and their gay children are here to stay and everyone might as well get onwith dealing with, understanding, and accepting this fact.”
