Gary, I agree. Gays have forever and always been about ten percent of any
given population. I know for sure there were gay soldiers serving during
the civil war, as well as cross-dressing and lesbian women. There were
gay cowboys and lesbian saloon entertainers. It is all there. Due to homophobia
and "blemishes" on families, these stories could be lost to history. These
are the rare kind of stories I would love to flush out.
