Well, it's nice to get it all out the way, isn't it?
I gave up after the Evan Davis thing - the straight press's ideas about what's interesting about The Gays is so odd/boring/random/patronising - gay "cures", gay Tories, gay dads, gay fashion, hot lez swingers, a selection of the first photos that came up on Google Images, isn't Alan Carr camp? ("Oh look, he's dressed as the Queen! Ha ha ha! And they've put a rainbow flag on the cover - cause that means so much to The Gays, doesn't it?") - but good luck to you if you can persevere.
