- I identify as gay.

- I'm bisexual.

- I'm as gay as they come.

- Uh, pansexual.

- Lesbian.

- I identify as a gay man.

- A bisexual female.

- Fabulously, ferocious, gay man.

Would your life be easier if you were straight?

- Oh yeah, my life would totally be easier

if I were straight.

- It depends on how you look at it I feel like.

- Growing up it probably would've been a lot easier understanding my own body and what was going on in my own head.

- It's really hard as a young kid

because you know, people wanna make fun of you, or people wanna beat you up just because you're different, or you talk differently.

- If I go back home to North Carolina and I had a girl with me I have to watch about what I do and say.

- You know in high school I wanted to take a guy to the prom

and I couldn't do that.

- It's hard enough being a person of color

and I think not being straight is another level of of privilege that I don't have.

- We as gay people have to go to gay-themed events,

gay bars, gay clubs,

whereas a straight could even just go to the grocery store and find someone.

- My life has become a lot easier now that I've kind of just accepted who I am and not giving a shit about what anybody thinks.

- More than my life being easy

I mostly just think about my family's life being easier.

- It's really not the easiest life.

If you could be straight, would you?

- I would not be straight if I could be.

- God no.

- Nah.

I tried to be straight once, it lasted about two months.

- I wouldn't be straight.

- No, because I think the world has gotten to a more accepting place.

- No I would never turn straight if I could.

- No, I'm very comfortable in my own skin,

I don't wanna turn straight, I don't wanna be straight,

I wanna be gay the way I am.

- I love being gay, I love being

you know, this flamboyant person.

I love enjoying life and grabbing life by the balls.

- Not being straight is awesome.

- I live in this beautiful limbo that I've created for myself.

- I've come out on the other side of this dark tunnel that all the gays go through,

but I can see why people would want to.

- As a Christian too, I believe I'm the way I am for a reason.

- I think if I hadn't had those experiences

I wouldn't be who I am today.

- To even think about that would just be disregarding all of the hard work I put into myself.

- Have you ever been to a gay bar?

If you haven't, you need to go.

Straight bars are so boring.

- I feel like if I grew up not having to question these things,

I would not be as compassionate of a person, or as educated of a person.
