Exley on Buggers

Homosexuality is an extreme position, but an extreme position that has to be inhabited. 


"..(in the asylum)  There was a consolation in believing that someone had recognized these homosexuals as being ill, even more of a consolation in believing that they had perhaps committed themselves.  They were not walking their pink poodles, leeringly clacking their eyeballs all over their made-up sockets, and "slaughtering the innocents" along Third avenue.  Neither were they holding "open meetings" with a view to persuading their legislators that they were just a bunch of jolly-good boys exercising a Hellenistic inclination".  - Frederick Exley, "A Fan's Notes"


"Faggotry is the Mugabe of personality disorders, once it takes hold, it never lets go". 
- Dr.  Moreau
