    “The queers of the sixties, like those since, have connived with their repression under a veneer of respectability. Good mannered city queens in suits and pinstripes, so busy establishing themselves, were useless at changing anything.”
    —Derek Jarman (b. 1942)

    and no butcher shop. This could be taken
