A Quote by Violet Chachki

It's very important to have visual representation, to show that queers are important, queers are powerful, queers are beautiful, queers are valid, and you can't erase us.

We don't have a lot of narrative on TV or film, mainstream film, of brown queers. Latina queers, I can't think of that many.

Tanya Saracho

Comedy is quite a difficult place for queers and for women.

Margaret Cho

Everyone knows queers and women invented punk.

Hunx

There are a lot of queers starved for entertainment from their own community.

Michelle Tea

I love queers as much as the next guy, I just don't think I should have to sit beside them on public transport.

Zach Braff

I think that reaching out to kids that feel really isolated is a life saving gesture that we have a responsibility as older queers to do.

Margaret Cho

I knew I was as gay as a goose. Then I ended up in West Hollywood, where the queers hang from the trees. I was home. I had landed.

Leslie Jordan

Shouldn't you be able to tell your stories from your point of view? We're dealing with that with 'Looking' where some queers are like, 'These guys are so boring! They don't represent me!' But no show can represent everything, so is it OK for us, in 'Looking,' to write about these three men and their world?

Tanya Saracho

I was quite pleased that Prince Philip didn't say anything like, I hate queers! He was quite well behaved.

Allan Carr

I just wish more of my fellow queers would come out sometimes. It's nice out here, you know?

Elton John

Oh, and just so you know, before we go out to the field we all get into a huddle and yell 'Go Queers!' really loud.

Simone Elkeles

The queers of the sixties, like those since, have connived with their repression under a veneer of respectability. Good mannered city queens in suits and pinstripes, so busy establishing themselves, were useless at changing anything.

Derek Jarman

I feel dance and pop music genres are extremely female and extremely gay. When it comes to art and pop culture, queers are f - king weirdos. We don't have gender rules that tell us what we can and can't be. We just make it up as we go along. We have full creative license to be whatever we want to be.

Beth Ditto

The scorn directed against drags is especially virulent; they have become the outcasts of gay life, the "queers" of homosexuality.In fact, they are classic scapegoats. Our old fears about our sissiness, still with us though masked by the new macho fascism, are now located, isolated, quarantined through our persecution of the transvestite.

Edmund White

Homosexuality was invented by a straight world dealing with its own bisexuality. But finding this difficult, and preferring not toadmit it, it invented a pariah state, a leper colony for the incorrigible whose very existence, when tolerated openly, was admonition to all. We queers keep everyone straight as whores keep matrons virtuous.

Kate Millett

I don't give a damn what queers do, and don't give a damn what Christians do. Just get the hell out of my way because I want to live my life and I don't want the government sucking 60% of my wages off my ass.
