You're lucky. It was only years later that I found out I had gone to school with any other gay kids at all. And it was some of the very kids who used to call me names and harrass me that turned out to be bigger queens than I ever thought about being.

Oh, god, don't get my started on my parents. Especially my mother. I think she's starting to finally get the message that I don't really want anything to do with her.

Of course, I grew up in the era of films like "Pretty in Pink," "Sixteen Candles," Breakfast Club," etc. -- which was great. Of course, I related to every character in the BC

Me in high school= Ally Sheedy's character in The Breakfast Club.
