About the way homosexuals are perceived in the media: "Some people are
so precious -- all this hoo-ha about bad role models and positive
images! Of course gay people are murderers, bigamists, drug addicts and
nasty people -- just as much as heterosexual people are all of these
things. What it all boils down to is, we are all people, and we all
have the same human desires. It just happens that some desires go this
way and some desires go that way. It's sad when people are oppressed.
But it's a question of rising above it. Personally, mentally and, if
you have to, physically. "
