People who commit sodomy or cut off their gonads (nowadays paid by health insurance) deserve special honor.

The tombstones of all the male homosexuals who died young from AIDS and other venereal diseases would be appropriate monuments to their "lifestyle".

People who know deep down that their lifestyle is a perversion demand constant affirmation of it.

I’m trying to think of something to say.

I got nothing. There are no words to describe the revulsion.

A monument to those afflicted with a mental disorder, or simply amoral individuals who will stick anything anywhere if it might feel good? Who needs it?

A monument who can’t figure out the purpose of their reproductive organs.

Cab we have a monument to fence hole humpers too?

In Mr. Goicolea’s design, the monument takes the form of nine boulders, some bisected with glass that acts as a prism and can emit a subtle rainbow.

"...gay monument..."


Homosexuals really are insane.
There are no parks and monuments dedicated to being straight.
They really make things difficult for themselves for no reason.

We just quietly go about our lives without being absurdly flamboyant.
In fact, that would be a great start.
Behave in a manner that people would have no idea about your bedroom preferences from a quarter-mile away.
