I love my parents. Coming out to them was sort of coming out to myself. I educated them and I wanted our relationship to keep growing. I wanted them to be a part of my life still. I wanted to be able to share with them what I was going through.
I actually have more respect for people who are in the closet. You end up...
I feel an intense intimacy with those who have this loathing interest in me....
Sincerity and competence is a strong combination. In politics it is everything.
