Anthony Venn-Brown Quotes
Make No Mistake, Hiding One's True Self Away In A Closet And Creating A Facade Of Heterosexuality Is Not Without Its Consequences. It May Appear To Have A Degree Of Safety But From My Experience They Are Very Unhealthy Places And Do All Kinds Of Terrible Things To Individuals Psychologically, Emotionally And Behaviourally ... To Say Nothing Of Projection. The Damage Of The Fear, Shame, Guilt And Self-loathing That Exist Inside A Closet Are Often Reflected Unknowingly In The External Life Of The Individual. In Or Out Of The Closet; There Is A Price To Pay. Each Individual Must Weigh Up The Consequences Of Honesty, Openness, Secrecy And Deception For Themselves. Coming Out, For Most Of Us, Is Like An Exorcism That Releases Us Of The Darkness We Have Lived In For Years And Caused Us To Believe Awful Things About Ourselves. On The Other Side Of The Looking Glass Are Freedom, Light And Life.
