THE GAY MAN'S PLEDGE

I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO MY OWN SELF-RESPECT AND TO THE RESPECT OF
ALL OTHER GAY MEN ON PLANET EARTH; ALL OF WHOM ARE VICTIMS OF THE ‘SYSTEM’ OF
HATRED AND I PLEDGE TO USE ALL MY LIFE ENERGY, INTELLIGENCE AND CREATIVITY, IN
ALL AREAS OF PEOPLE ACTIVITY, TO ELIMINATE THE GLOBAL ‘SYSTEM’ OF HOMOPHOBIA ON
PLANET EARTH AND TO REPLACE IT WITH JUSTICE; SO THAT THERE CAN BE PEACE. SO
HELP ME {INSERT DIVA OF CHOICE NAME OF THOSE WHO SUFFERED BY SACRIFICING
THEIR LIVES TO HATRED}.
