Sexuality is a private matter; some believe that broadcasting it destroys the very things that make it sacred.

For the naysayers that claimed 'American Family' revealed us to be vacant, unloving, uncaring morons of the materialistic '70s, this image will be proven wrong when Mom and Dad remarry...

There is a supernal intelligence behind sexual arousal, the true purpose of which is to create for us ecstatic experiences of our own divinity.

Coming out involves varying degrees of difficulty that are affected by class, race, religion, and geography.
