When you first arrive, it’s terrifying, I don’t care how hard you are. But eventually you just go, ‘You know what? I’m here!’ Acceptance is a huge thing. The bullying was mainly young guys shouting out ‘batty boy’ and things like that. It was nothing I hadn’t heard before and I dealt with it in the way I would on the street. Telling me I’m gay is not news to me. Why are you telling me I’m gay? Yeah, I know, I’m 50. I’m not the sort of person who can maintain a dark perspective on life for very long. Having had a good sense of humor is very useful in certain situations. Being insanely optimistic has its advantages.
