"My mom will never march in a gay pride parade with a big sign. She is very private. She lives in Chattanooga. She tries so hard to understand me and my life. But she said to me once, 'Leslie, if I live to be 105 I'll never understand this need you have to air your dirty laundry. Why can't you just whisper it to a therapist?!' She doesn't understand. I was raised in a religion that I never felt embraced me." – Sordid Lives actor Leslie Jordan on his mother, to whom he's dedicated his new book, My Trip Down the Pink Carpet. [MSNBC]

I love Leslie Jordan, he's so witty and charming and I adore the accent. It's just a pity that his mother doesn't understand what a fabulous son she has. Life is too short to let any kind of homophobic beliefs rule your personal life.
He is great. But I have a feeling that his mother is much better than average on the acceptance scale. How many LGBT folks have
parents that fully accept them and embrace them?
who has parents who accept them and embrace them gay or str8t? I think he is trying to say she cant understand his not being private. I tell all if someone wants to know but when i'm homo i want to be left alono.
