JoanDelilah.comNormally I'm described with adjectives like 'courageous' and 'warm'. Well I've been crying, screaming, writing nasty emails, and not eating a bite all day.
So- why am I admitting this?
Because that skit was the embodiment of everything that held me in the closet for 35 miserable years. I need to underscore that.
That skit is _precisely_ what I was afraid of my entire life.
That perception. Being a freak. A man in a dress. A Joke.
