| Introduction | I was born and raised in South Africa, but left that country in 1986 due to the unacceptable political climate that obtained at that time. I moved to the US, and became a naturalized citizen. After living in the US (New York City) for two decades, I moved to the UK, where several members of my family now reside (South Africa is rapidly disintegrating under majority rule; the reasons for this are too complex to discuss in this entry). |
| Interests | Writing about the rights of gay citizens of the UK and the US..... |
