Every time I hear someone making ignorant comments about the supposed 'evils' of homosexuality, I think about the true evil of the high suicide rates among gay and lesbian teens.

Gay teenagers are four times as likely to attempt suicide as straight ones. I wish they knew that there's nothing wrong with them; that they are just a different shade of normal.

There are still parts of the country where it's hard: when you realize you're gay, it's like a death sentence.

There are deaths in public places on the grounds that the victim is gay.

It's not the '90s anymore. I think the gay community is a lot more accepted these days.

We live in a country where people still get beaten to death because of their sexual orientation.

I do not think the gay population has been all that rabid for gay marriage. Note that I do not use the words 'gay community.' Expunge that expression from your vocabulary. We are not a community.

The gay community is very fickle. And I know because I'm part of it and I see it every day.

In the 21st century, I think it's fair to say, homosexuality is more accepted in Britain and it's wonderful that my generation has been able to grow up with that.

We have many cases of men committing suicide rather than face their own individuality. I know of no case of a woman who committed suicide because she was gay.
