1976 February 14, Joan DeForeest, “Irresponsible Inaccuracies Infuriate”, in Gay Community News, volume 3, number 33, page 5:"The gay community would love to point to Patti and say, 'She's one of us'" I have always been intrigued as to what and whom this mythical "gay community" we always talk about consists of.
