Meditations on Queer Identity

Pieces of queer journalism, art, and literature that I think about often. I wanted to compile all of these in one place so that I could have them on hand, just to remember them, or to look at them. I don't have a cohesive vision or statement for this "web weave." It is primarily a personal collection.

Hers was tougher than tough love. It was brutal, industrial-strength. A sinewy love that never gave way to an inch of weakness. It was a love that saw what was best for you ten steps ahead, and didn't care if it hurt like hell in the meantime. When I got hurt, she felt it so deeply, it was as though it were her own affliction. She was guilty only of caring too much. I realize this now, only in retrospect. No one in this world would ever love me as much as my mother, and she would never let me forget it.
