It is because of people like Ulrichs that such a celebration is even POSSIBLE today! And interestingly enough, my lover is also a German by descent...Among the many toasts that evening [there] will be a toast to Karl Ulrichs! --Ted #411 You can never have enough positive role models! --Rob #414 Such a courageous pioneer --Alain #428 I am celebrating somewhat in that I have just received confirmation of my membership in a group that caters to bears like me and making me feel really special... --Jim #435 I hope it will open minds and hearts to know that this whole "gay movement" thing is not something recent in history but rather is as old as history itself --Tim #438 Hey there! Thanks for the invitation, but I'm in Australia. I'm a bit too far away. Damn! Anyway I wanted to write something for your Memory Book: People, please don't bash your brains in over being gay. It is the most natural thing in existence. There are many pseudo moralists that rape us with their crap. These rape machines will destroy themselves with their own hate, a little process called the "natural selection process," lol. They believe touching another human being, especially same sex is wrong. Hahaaaaa what a load of shit!! I don't understand why loving another human being is wrong. I don't understand why touching someone is wrong. I believe that touching is part of that language known as body language. A natural thing of life. Sex being the most intimate, to tell someone how much you love them. People, that "riddle of nature" is no longer a riddle; it is just part of those good things in life. What do I say to pseudo moralists? We weren't born with enough middle fingers!!! Love all of ya. Keep kicking people's shit in their own faces --FewryBear #444 Thanks SO MUCH for this information...Ulrichs, about whom I knew a little, comes to life. I'll definitely pass this on --John #445 It is a bit dry to read Ulrichs' letters, but I DO hear his passion and his committment...I am re-reading them and am slowly beginning to hear his voice....By the way, I think he would make a wonderful subject for a play. What do you think? Let me know --Michael #453 Ese hombre fue genial!!! No solo mostró valentía admitiendo que era gay pùblicamente; si no que también luchó por los derechos de nosotros. Ya quisiera yo poder hablar con mi familia como él lo hizo!! [This man was genial. He showed courage not only by admitting publicly that he was Gay, but also by demanding Gay rights. If only I could talk to my family as he did!] --Andrea #455 PNASH...has conseguido un admirador, me gustan las personas de las cuales puedo aprender algo, aquellas que ayudan a ampliar mis horizontes e enriquecer mis metas [P. Nash...you have an admirer; I like people I can learn from, who can widen my horizons and (help) reach my goals] --Jose #477 What incredible strength of character it takes to be a pioneer.
