"I'm straight and I have a lot of gay friends."

Friendship

Quote_1.png
Laura Innes

Laura Innes
"I have a friend who is around my age, a little younger, and she's gay and came out to her own community when she was younger but not to her family and to the community at large."

Family

Quote_1.png
Laura Innes
"It was sort of that in-between area when people don't talk about their personal lives. That's the kind of life I think Kerry would be living now if it weren't for the Lopez character sort of outing her."

"I think they do a great job on Queer as Folk."
