David, age 5
Mt. Vernon, OH (1970)
This is me, Little David, from Mt. Vernon, Ohio - birthplace of Paul Lynde!
"Drying my hair with The Joy of Cooking" |
I always felt different. I was always "too sensitive" and I didn't have many friends. And the few friends I did have were girls, not boys.
David's first, famous-person same sex crushes:
Freddie (on "Scooby Doo")
Aqua-Man, Davey Crockett, & Davy Jones ("The Monkees")

I think most gay men can relate to the "most of my friends were girls" bit.
And don't worry - I secretly envied my mother when I'd accompany her to the hair salon and watch her read a magazine under those big hair dryers. ; ) More common than you might think.
"big, yellow, warm 'n sunshiney, electric hat on my head". I wouldn't mind having one of those nowadays. LOL!
That hair dryer is rad, I want one :D
Hey David,
I also am from Mt. Vernon. Pretty awesome that there is a nice lineage of gays from there!
