This doesn't surprise me and I've noticed it myself. I think, for many in our community, they have had to hide who are they are...who they love...for so long that the need to show the people in their world or even THE world who and what they are....whatever that may be...just bursts out from inside them in the form of ink. The need to be seen....be heard...is too much to hold inside.

Just my pennies for this thought.
