What am I reading

"Verisimilitude"
That's a new word

"And don't ever come back to the south. You're better than that."

"Two, four, six, eight, gay is just as good as straight."
"Three, five, seven, nine, lesbians are mighty fine."

"The lesbian," she explained, "is discriminated against not only because she is a lesbian, but because she is a woman."

"He who is THE expert on the homophile movement??"

"But where were all the lesbians?"

"though Kameny did not have a term for it yet, by exposing the arbitrary logic of the purges with his own, contrary logic, he formulated gay pride as a political tool of resistance, a weapon to be wielded, for now, only in the courts." Loveee this quote

Restarted because I have no clue what's going on 😭 this series is so difficult man
