DNA Excerpt: Bringing Home the Birkin
by Dr. Hsien-Hsien Lei
Posted June 20, 2008 in DNA Quotes and Excerpts
From Bringing Home the Birkin by Michael Tonello:
Pink-and-green flowered tiles accented the mostly white floor, with the same floral design mirrored in the quilt. The pair of overstuffed chairs and couch were all pink to match, and my masculinity was momentarily threatened until I remembered I was gay. My Y chromosome was further comforted by the dark mahogany furniture and ceiling fans, as well as the gender neutral white walls.
