These are rare gems you've memorialized on this platform; thank you so much for caring. It's vital these voices and stories don't fade and ebb into time but disseminated for the enlightenment of those voices and stories yet to speak and be shared.

To add to what Artie Kantrowitz says: I was in the closet when I started junior college in 1988. I had an openly gay professor who helped me to feel better about myself. I finally "came out" to myself in 1991 which began the coming out process, to others, for me.

As a gay guy now 80 years old in 2023, I think one dynamic that is usually overlooked in gay history is that, in the 1970s, after Stonewall, all we were asking of the straight community was that it "GET OFF OUR BACKS!." By the early 1980s, however, all we were asking of the straight community was that it "HELP US!" We should forgive the straight world for the fact that we asked them to do a 180-degree-turn in the space of 10 years.

Agreed. But the gay community as a whole seems to ignore the blatant and rampant promiscuity that continued even after AIDS started. They wanted the bathhouses to stay open for example. This helped disgust and turn off the straight community, fairly or unfairly.
