That's a lovely post to read.
Thanks for sharing it.

I am so glad you got a good experience when you needed to


You are right,it is wrong to tolerate bigotry and homophobia.
It sends the wrong signals to the bigot and homophobe,that their view has foundation to it.

Lovely post from you,I am only 25 but I know the 70s too was not the easiest times for the gay communities and as to rights.
