      Die Frage, wie ich zur Homosexualität stehe, hat dazu geführt, dass (mit einiger Wahrscheinlichkeit) die einzige queere Person der Sendung mit der Frage konfrontiert wurde. Absurd. Für einige weiße Queers existieren nichtweiße Queers schlicht nicht.
      The question of where I stand on homosexuality has led (with some probability) to the only queer person on the show being confronted with the question. Absurd. For some white queers, non-white queers simply do not exist.
