I was simply wanting to make the point that queer people have achieved things and have been incidentally queer. Others have deliberately fought homophobia, sought inclusion or militantly proclaimed their queerness.

I guess I need to Google you, boo. I forget how interconnected we are to each other and human history. Thank you for the reminder. Cheers!
