I Do Some Of My Best Stand-up

Be Strong, Believe In Freedom And In God, Love Yourself, Understand Your Sexuality, Have A Sense Of Humor, Masturbate, Don't Judge People By Their Religion, Color Or Sexual Habits, Love Life And Your Family.

I Think For The Most Part Men Have Always Been The Aggressors Sexually. Through Time Immemorial They've Always Been In Control. So I Think Sex Is Equated With Power In A Way, And That's Scary In A Way. It's Scary For Men That Women Would Have That Power, And I Think It's Scary For Women To Have That Power - Or To Have That Power And Be Sexy At The Same Time.

On The One Hand, The Idea Of Marriage And The Sort Of Traditional Family Life Repulses Me. But On The Other Hand, I Long For It, You Know What I Mean? I'm Constantly In Conflict With Things. And It Is Because Of My Past And My Upbringing And The Journey That I've Been On.

When I First Came Up, The Whole Aids Epidemic Was Starting, And The Gay Community That I Experienced From The Beginning Of My Career Was Mostly - And Overwhelmingly - Concerned With Staying Alive. And, Also, I Felt Really Aware Of The Preciousness Of Life And Time. The Gay Community And People Who Were Hiv-positive Were Treated So Badly, And I Was Very Disturbed By Things. But I Also Saw A Lot Of Love And Connection In The Gay Community At That Time.

I'm Not Claiming To Appeal To The Same People That Christina Aguilera Or Britney Spears Are Going To Appeal To. I'm Not Trying To. I'm Doing What I Want To Do.
