Andrew Miller

In a Huffington Post article, Janson Wu, executive director of Gay & Lesbian Advocates & Defenders (GLAD), wrote, “One of the fundamental reasons why people are prejudiced against gay people is because they are uncomfortable with the idea of two people of the same sex having sex.” (Ya think?)
