- 1980 December 27, Lee Swinslow, quoting Krissy Keeler, “Wallflower: Moving With Their Politics”, in Gay Community News, volume 8, number 23, page 10:
- So we at this point want to encourage everyone to have principled relationships, and to understand where their relationship fits in terms of socio-impact. We want heterosexuals to understand their privilege in relation to lesbians but not to across the board say we're not going to work with you unless you're a lesbian.
