Did you notice the sticker?

In the late 1970s, one of the most popular slogans in the Gay and Lesbian movement in Catalonia was "Maricon? Sí, gràcies" (Catalan language for "Faggot? Yes, thanks") in the shape of the famous "Nuclear? No, thanks" sign.

“Queer people don’t grow up as ourselves, we grow up playing a version of ourselves that sacrifices authenticity to minimise humiliation and prejudice. The massive task of our adult lives is to unpick which parts of ourselves are truly us and which parts we’ve created to protect us.”

~ Alexander Leon
