I liked the conversation about shirts. - I used to have a collection of them. Ranging from tame like “love is love” or “peace, love, pride” or HRC’s = sign, to “stop teaching your child to hate me” “you say dyke like it’s a bad thing” “we don’t all play softball” or “does this shirt make me look gay?” and probably others I can’t remember. I’m not sure if I no longer wear them because I outgrew the public-activism-all-the-time stage of my own life, or if it’s because I no longer live in a gay part of a gay friendly city and go to gay bars all the time with other outspoken gay activists…
Typically the reactions (by others at a gay bar) were positive - a great conversation starter. ; ) The only somewhat negative experience I had was when I wore “Bush used to be a pretty word” while visiting DC under that administration. Went into a bar for brunch - again, a bar. Not a classy restaurant- even I wouldn’t have worn a shirt like that into a classy restaurant as there’s a time/place for everything, including statement shirts, but a bar with last night’s ‘party’ still lingering in the air….(ew) um, yah. A customer who was on his way out asked for me to be thrown out (I wasn’t) or that I at least turn my shirt inside out (I didn’t). But it was awkward for the few minutes until he stopped glaring and finally left.
Unlike that last example, I think some of the tame messages like “peace, love, pride” etc can do just what you said toward the end of your show - change the view of who gay people are or what we look like. And, sometimes they’re just fun.
Thanks for another great show!
