The Gay Alchemy

In medieval times, it was all the rage to turn ordinary mineral elements into gold. It was called alchemy and was alternately praised and condemned depending on who was in power. Suffice to say, the efforts failed, but since the Greenwich Village gay bar rebellion called the Stonewall riots occurred in June 1969, the movement to secure “gay rights” for homosexuals—gays, lesbians, as well as bisexuals and transgendered folks—has gained momentum as they seek to normalize homosexuality.
