Jag hittar inget om homosexualitet där, kan du citera avsnittet som handlar om detta...?
Det är flera avsnitt:
Citat:
I wanted to spend more time living in New York City as a gay man, rather than being in a band playing rock’n’roll.
Citat:
Was it ever weird being openly gay in pro wrestling, a form of entertainment where so many of the fans seem ignorant of the homoerotic tendencies?
Oh, how could anyone miss the homoerotic tendencies?
Citat:
Both you and Grant Hart were gay, but no one ever spoke about that while Hüsker Dü were active. Looking back, do you wish you had been more open? Would that have even been possible?
We never talked about it that much. As an artist, writing at the time gender-neutral songs, I wanted everyone to be included, and had the band been labeled as gay music, no one would have listened. Fast-forward a few years to 1994: SPIN sends Dennis Cooper to spend two days with me in Austin, saying that if I didn’t come out, they were going to out me. So I capitulated, and now everything’s good, but I came from a very small town and they had to deal with that. One of my friends from high school who was also gay went away and then got killed when he came back. At this point in my life, I feel assured and centered and whole, but to get here? Jesus.
