"Because some people have sex with people of the same sex, an entire culture has been created, broadly speaking, out of oppression. Which in a rational world would not be an issue"
- Neil Tennant
About this Quote
This quote by Neil Tennant speaks with the concept that the LGBTQ+ neighborhood has been produced out of oppression. In a rational world, the fact that some people make love with people of the exact same sex would not be an issue, but unfortunately, in many parts of the world, it is still seen as something that is incorrect or immoral. This has caused the creation of an entire culture that is based upon the concept of acceptance and understanding of those who identify as LGBTQ+. This culture has been constructed out of a need to fight against the oppression that the LGBTQ+ community has actually dealt with for so long. It is a culture that is based upon the concept of love and approval, and it is a culture that needs to be celebrated and welcomed.
"The opportunity to create a small world between two pieces of cardboard, where time exists yet stands still, where people talk and I tell them what to say, is exciting and rewarding"
