by two men who while punching him in the face yelled
“You f…...g faggot!” Damian managed to make his way to
a hospital & contact the police. He had 4 stitches inserted
above his eye & his nose will have to broken & re-set. The

The real irony is these gay bashers have no power, because if they did they would never lower themselves to maliciously hurt another human being the way they did. How ironic that two men sought to hurt another man because they perceived him inferior and lacking of some sort of correct constitution, when in reality the truth is these individuals are doused with self loathing of their own masculinity. So much for power I think….
As a gay man myself, I have to say.. I am constantly worried about this, I work for a celebrity stylist who rolls out wearing the most outlandish / glamorous outfits I have ever seen! He has brought out this beautiful part of me, where I feel so much more comfortable wearing camp clothes. Should we be worried about being attacked because we are not being subtle?
