    Shedding light on the Dark Ages
    The journey from a homophobic world to a tolerant society, though sadly only in parts of it so far, is told by those who lived through it and people who are now enjoying its fruits. Expect hours of head-shaking, eye-rolling and eyebrow-raising at the totally berserk bigotry, hysteria and inanity of our very recent ancestors.
