You should not label yourself. You are much more than your tendencies. You are the beautiful spirit, and if that is also a label, it is better to have this label, than any other.
~Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
The plague of mankind is the fear and rejection of diversity: monotheism, monarchy, monogamy and, in our age, monomedicine. The belief that there is only one right way to live, only one right way to regulate religious, political, sexual, medical affairs is the root cause of the greatest threat to man: members of his own species, bent on ensuring his salvation, security, and sanity.
~Thomas Szasz
Resolve to be thyself; and know that he who finds himself, loses his misery.
~Matthew Arnold, “Self-Dependence,” Empedocles on Etna, and Other Poems, 1852
If you are ashamed to stand by your colors, you had better seek another flag.

Bisexuality is a blessing and a curse, but viewing it as a schizophrenia will make you insane…. I am not a whole person with split desires: I am a whole person with desire. As everyone is, regardless.
~Agavé Powers
While many minority groups are the target for prejudice… and discrimination… in our society, few persons face this hostility without the support and acceptance of their family as do many gay, lesbian, and bisexual youth.
~Virginia Uribe and Karen Harbeck
About a year ago I was a guest on a network news show in New York. They were showing film clips from a gay pride parade down Fifth Avenue, but they only decided to show the part with men in dresses and heels. I had seen the parade, and there were men in business suits as well. After showing the film, the newsperson made some comments, and I found the comments extremely offensive. “This is what’s wrong with the media,” I said. “You show a fringe position. You show one point of view. You’re closing the minds of the people by not showing them what the reality is.” I got up and walked out, and I’ve never been asked back again.
