Well yes that is what I am saying. Sixty years ago being gay was seen as an evil act with villains and victims.

Strangely enough I was going round Monkey World this afternoon. My wife has a mobility scooter, but I with frequent stops was going round under my own steam - I have chronic heart disease - one of my arteries runs into the ventricle rather than the auricle, so my heart never gets enough oxygen. Anyway I made it over to this seat, breathing heavily.
'You better move from here, this seats facing the kids playground' counselled my wife.

Its a good thing of course that we look out for the safety of our children. But contrast that with the days of my childhood. WE lived opposite a sec mod school for girls. When the girls were running round the sports field in their gi-normous knickers - loads of old men were crowded outside the railings watching sporting event.
