Jeanette LeBlanc
“My queerness isn’t just a matter of who I sleep with, bigger than sexuality, a subversive reclamation of life outside of the lines”
Jeanette LeBlanc

Andrew Joseph White
“There's a whole spectrum of reactions to coming out. Getting kicked out is one extreme–being accepted wholeheartedly is the other. But in the middle, there's this. The awkwardness, the refusals to acknowledge, the uncomfortable weirdness of turning away.”
Andrew Joseph White, Compound Fracture
