When you're a kid, you think, "Well, I will grow up and I will get a wife and we will have kids and then we will have grandkids." My life has a different shape. That is weird, but there are things about it that are exciting.

I think that women have a construction of their sexuality put on them from a very young age that says exclusivity is necessary to remain valuable, that if a dude screws somebody else it means that he doesn't love you, that he doesn't care about you. You don't have primacy in his life.

I am not a huge fan of being around people all the time. I really like being able to leave people.

When I did find guys with whom I was very sexually compatible, trying to figure out how romance worked... when you're a gay guy you don't necessarily have that same push to make a conventional relationship work.

The weird thing is when you're a gay guy my age, I spent so much of my life just thinking I was probably never going to date anyone, so now just thinking, "all right, settle down and have a child" seems ridiculous to me.

Gay people, we die in all the movies, like we almost always die in the movie, because that's what you can do to us that's dramatic. We can't make a baby.

Not a lot of gay guys end up coming to alt-comedy-ish shows. They like all these '80s shimmer shows, or they like going to drag shows. It is always weird and interesting when I meet somebody at a gay bar who is familiar with my stuff.
