Queer Quote by Roan Parrish

“So, you identify as queer, yeah?” Christopher confirmed, and I nodded. “This might be silly,” he said. “Or maybe not cool to ask, I don’t know. But will you tell me if you feel like I’m doing a thing where I cast you in a role you don’t think is right?” quote by Roan Parrish
