“The faggots act out their fantasies without believing them to be real. The men act out their fantasies always proclaiming they are real. The faggots’ fantasies create play— dressing up and dressing down. The men’s fantasies create responsibilities— going here and going that. The faggots’ fantasies are about love and sex and solidarity. The men’s fantasies are about control and domination and winning. The faggots move towards the limits of living in the body for they have known body ecstasy and want to live there with everyone always. The men move towards the limits of living among things for they have seen great collections and want to live there alone always.”
“FAGGOT WISDOM: There is more to be learned from wearing a dress for a day, than there is from wearing a suit for a lifetime.”
