“Can you imagine, somebody telling you, your love for your dearly beloved is a sin! Can you imagine, somebody telling you, women are inferior to men, and are meant only serve the men! Can you imagine, somebody telling you, a man can have multiple wives, and yet be deemed civilized! Here that somebody is a fundamentalist ape - a theoretical pest from the stone-age, that somehow managed to survive even amidst all the rise of reasoning and intellect.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Either Civilized or Phobic: A Treatise on Homosexuality

― Joshua Ashton Williams, A Change Of Hearts: From The Beginning: What happens when their heart no longer beats for you??

“I sat in front of the roaring hearth and watched the men play poker badly and loudly. My mother bent down and filled my wine glass. Maybe it was the angle or the light. Maybe it was simply her, but she looked so young that night. And Nancy must’ve noticed it too because I caught her looking at her as she carried in a tray of teas and it was a gaze I could see that extinguished all thoughts of her erratic marriage (A marriage that incidentally would never happen due to Detective Butler’s shameful ‘outingâ€� by national Inquirer magazine).
Later, as my mother entered my room to say good night I sat up and said, ‘Nancy’s in love with you.�
‘And I’m in love with her.�
‘But what about dad?�
She smiled, ‘I’m in love with him too.�
‘Oh. Is that allowed?�
She laughed and said, ‘for a child of sixties, Elle . . .
I know. Bit of a letdown.�
‘Never,� she said. ‘Never. I love them differently that’s all. I don’t sleep with Nancy.�
‘Oh God I don’t need to know that.�
‘Yes you do. We play by our own rules Ellie always have. That’s all we can do. For us it works.�
And she leaned over and kissed me good night.”
― Sarah Winman, When God Was a Rabbit

“What if I have come to see same-gender love as a really solid choice—just a brilliant idea? Something I would highly recommend?
And what if I demand freedom not because I was “born this way� and “can’t help it� but because I can do whatever I choose to do with my love and my body from year to year, moment to moment—because I’m a grown woman who does not need any excuse to live however I want to live and love whomever I want to love?
What if I don’t need your permission slip because I’m already free?”
― Glennon Doyle, Untamed
